Remove castling moves in check generation

Browse Source 
Check generation is used only in qsearch and
only at Depth(0), castling moves that give check
are very rare overall and even almost not exsistent
at Depth(0).

So retire this almost never used code that adds
a small but consistent slow down in the normal path.
