Joost VandeVondele 44b6697f19 Remove explicit moveCount pruning
The removed lines approximately duplicate equivalent logic in the movePicker.
Adjust the futility_move_count to componsate for some difference
(the movePicker prunes one iteration of the move loop later).

---------------------

How to continue from there?

It would be interesting to see if we can extract some Elo gain
from the new futility_move_count formula, for instance by somehow
incorporating the final -1 in the 5 constant, or adding a linear
term to the quadratics...

```
   futility_move_count = (5 + depth * depth) * (1 + improving) / 2 - 1
```
