Two more parameters eliminated

Browse Source 
RedundantRook and RedundantQueen replaced by simple
variable RedundantMajor. Also the SameColor coefficient
for Queen<->Queen has been set by definition to 0.

The remaining 5 parameters:

LinearCoefficients[ROOK]
LinearCoefficients[QUEEN]
QuadraticCoefficientsSameColor[ROOK][ROOK]
QuadraticCoefficientsSameColor[QUEEN][ROOK]
RedundantMajor

are sufficient to equate the material imbalances for the
5 common material configurations of R, RR, Q, QR and QRR
to any desired values simultaneously.

With the chosen parameters there should be no functional
change unless one side has more than 2 rooks or more
than 1 queen. For example bench from the start position
using the commands:

./stockfish
go depth 16

produces identical output except for one extra node
in the last iteration.

bench: 8198094
