Make pruning at ttpv nodes more aggressive

Browse Source 
Continuation of work done by @FauziAkram and @Viren6 They had a series
of patches that decrease pruning for ttPv nodes - and it passed as a
gainer at lower time controls while revert passed as a gainer at higher
time controls.
So it's a logical continuation of this work that increases pruning for
ttPv nodes in hopes of scaling to longer TCs.
