Introduction evaluation grain of 16 (and randomize)

This patch uses an evaluation grain of 16 in order to get more cutoffs in
the alpha-beta algorithm. For a discussion of the efficiency of alpha-beta
related to changes in the number of discrete values of terminal nodes, see
for instance section 9.1.2 of Judea Pearl's classical book "Heuristics" :

https://mat.uab.cat/~alseda/MasterOpt/Judea_Pearl-Heuristics_Intelligent_Search_Strategies_for_Computer_Problem_Solving.pdf

Moreover, we add a small (-1, +1) random component after the quantification
to help the search exploration a little bit. This is similar in spirit to
the (-1, +1) random component already present in the function draw_value()
to make Stockfish more robust in draw evaluations.

Correct and extend PV lines with decisive TB score

Currently (after #5407), SF has the property that any PV line with a decisive
TB score contains the corresponding TB position, with a score that correctly
identifies the depth at which TB are entered. The PV line that follows might
not preserve the game outcome, but can easily be verified and extended based on
TB information. This patch provides this functionality, simply extending the PV
lines on output, this doesn't affect search.

Indeed, if DTZ tables are available, search based PV lines that correspond to
decisive TB scores are verified to preserve game outcome, truncating the line
as needed. Subsequently, such PV lines are extended with a game outcome
preserving line until mate, as a possible continuation. These lines are not
optimal mating lines, but are similar to what a user could produce on a website
like https://syzygy-tables.info/ clicking always the top ranked move, i.e.
minimizing or maximizing DTZ (with a simple tie-breaker for moves that have
identical DTZ), and are thus an just an illustration of how to game can be won.

A similar approach is already in established in
https://github.com/joergoster/Stockfish/tree/matefish2

This also contributes to addressing #5175 where SF can give an incorrect TB
win/loss for positions in TB with a movecounter that doesn't reflect optimal
play. While the full solution requires either TB generated differently, or a
search when ranking rootmoves, current SF will eventually find a draw in these
cases, in practice quite quickly, e.g.
`1kq5/q2r4/5K2/8/8/8/8/7Q w - - 96 1`
`8/8/6k1/3B4/3K4/4N3/8/8 w - - 54 106`

Gives the same results as master on an extended set of test positions from
https://github.com/mcostalba/Stockfish/commit/9173d29c414ddb8f4bec74e4db3ccbe664c66bf9
with the exception of the above mentioned fen where this commit improves.

With https://github.com/vondele/matetrack using 6men TB, all generated PVs verify:
```
Using ../Stockfish/src/stockfish.syzygyExtend on matetrack.epd with --nodes 1000000 --syzygyPath /chess/syzygy/3-4-5-6/WDL:/chess/syzygy/3-4-5-6/DTZ
Engine ID: Stockfish dev-20240704-ff227954
Total FENs: 6555
Found mates: 3299
Best mates: 2582
Found TB wins: 568
```

As repeated DTZ probing could be slow a procedure (100ms+ on HDD, a few ms on
SSD), the extension is only done as long as the time taken is less than half
the `Move Overhead` parameter. For tournaments where these lines might be of
interest to the user, a suitable `Move Overhead` might be needed (e.g. TCEC has
1000ms already).

Output from a fix depth onward, instead of 3s.

To avoid output that depends on timing, output currmove and similar only from depth > 30
onward. Current choice of 3s makes the output of the same search depending on
the system load, and doesn't always start at move 1. Depth 30 is nowadays
reached in a few seconds on most systems.

Limit has_game_cycle() to only upcoming repetition

use the original algorithm according to the paper
http://web.archive.org/web/20201107002606/https://marcelk.net/2013-04-06/paper/upcoming-rep-v2.pdf,
which detects accurately if a position has an upcoming repetition. The 'no
progress' part of has_game_cycle has been removed, the function has been
renamed to upcoming_repetition to reflect this.

As a result of this fix, to the best of our knowledge, all PVs for completed
iterations that yield a mate or decisive table base score now end in mate or
contain a TB position, respectively.

Do Capture History Updates In Probcut

This patch introduces history updates to probcut. Standard depth - 3 bonus and
maluses are given to the capture that caused fail high and previously searched
captures, respectively. Similar to #5243, a negative history fill is applied to
compensate for an increase in capture history average, thus improving the
scaling of this patch.

Internal iterative reductions: decrease depth more

For PV nodes without a ttMove, we decrease depth.
But in this patch, additionally, if the current position is found in the TT, and the stored depth in the TT is greater than or equal to
the current search depth, we decrease the search depth even further.

Simplify Bonus Formula In History Adjustment

Inspired by a discord message [1] from Vizvezdenec, this patch simplifies the
bonus adjustment bonus = bonus > 0 ? 2 * bonus : bonus / 2 to a constant
addition, maintaining bonus average at around 0 in regular bench. As cj5716
pointed in discord [2], the constant bonus can also be considered as factoring
tempo when calculating bonus, yielding a better value of the move.
