Extend irreversible moves

if these are ttMoves and played in positions with a high value of the rule50 counter. The unusual extension of 2 is safe in this context as awarding it will reset the rule50 counter, making sure it is awarded very rarely in a search path.

This patch partially addresses https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/issues/2620 as it should make it less likely to play a move that resets the counter, but that is worse than alternative moves after a slightly deeper search.
