Chess engine: Foxsee 7.17.2

on

FoxSEE - UCI chess engine, Rating JCER=2543
Author: Zixiao Han 

v.7.17.2
Re-wrote q_search: start to use transposition table in q_search (share the same table with ab_search) and removed dangerous cutoffs on pv nodes
Carefully selected where to fail-hard and where to fail-soft
Removed Aspiration Window (as a result of fail-hard/soft change; results in search instability otherwise)
Added Razoring with a safe margin
Added back Mate-Threat Extension to guard Razoring & Reversed Futility Pruning
Added Time Pruning (another new experimental idea, see wiki for explaination)
Slightly modified evaluation （mostly around passers).
