Adjust reductions based on current node delta and root delta

This patch is a follow up of previous 2 patches that introduced more reductions for PV nodes with low delta and more pruning for nodes with low delta. Instead of writing separate heuristics now it adjust reductions based on delta / rootDelta - it allows to remove 3 separate adjustements of pruning/LMR in different places and also makes reduction dependence on delta and rootDelta smoother. Also now it works for all pruning heuristics and not just 2.
