Use zero null move margin when depth < 4 * OnePly This is because when we are below 4 * OnePly, the null move will directly jump to qsearch and if we are below beta, our opponent is above beta and will get immediate stand pat cut off. So basically this patch is just optimizing away useless evaluation calls. dbg_hit_on() runs show that this heuristic is correct >99% of cases. Transposition table probably causes some inaccurary?
