Remove KNPKB endgame.

Browse Source 
This is a functional simplification that removes the KNPKB endgame.

Testing on only KNPKB positions suggests that this removal actually gains Elo:

Score of patch vs master: 3380 - 3035 - 33585  [0.504] 40000
Elo difference: 3.0 +/- 1.4, LOS: 100.0 %, DrawRatio: 84.0 %

Score of patch vs master: 290 - 36 - 39674  [0.503] 40000
Elo difference: 2.2 +/- 0.3, LOS: 100.0 %, DrawRatio: 99.2 %

removal also doesn't cause a regression with the standard book:
