Introduce ProbCut for check evasions

Browse Source 
The idea of this patch can be described as follows: if we are in check
and the transposition table move is a capture that returns a value
far above beta, we can assume that the opponent just blundered a piece
by giving check, and we return the transposition table value. This is
similar to the usual probCut logic for quiet moves, but with a different
threshold.

The committed version has an additional fix to never return unproven wins
in the tablebase range or the mate range. This fix passed tests for non-
regression at STC and LTC:
