Introduce pawn structure based history

Original idea by Seer chess engine https://github.com/connormcmonigle/seer-nnue,
coding done by @Disservin, code refactoring done by @locutus2 to match the style
of other histories.

This patch introduces pawn structure based history, which assings moves values
based on last digits of pawn structure hash and piece type of moved piece and
landing square of the move. Idea is that good places for pieces are quite often
determined by pawn structure of position. Used in 3 different places
- sorting of quiet moves, sorting of quiet check evasions and in history based
pruning in search.
