Revert evaluation cache

And return on using TT as backing store for position
evaluations.

Tests (even on single thread) show eval cache was a regression.
In multi thread result should be even worst because eval cache
is a per-thread struct, while TT is shared.

After 4957 games at 15"+0.05 (single thread)
eval cache vs master 969 - 1093 - 2895  -9 ELO

So previous reported result of +18 ELO was probably due to an
issue in the testing framework (a bug in cutechess-cli) that
has been fixed in the meanwhile.
