Tweak the formulas for unsafeSquares

We give more bonus for a special case: If there are some enemy squares occupied
or attacked by the enemy on the passed pawn span,
but if they are all attacked by our pawn, use new intermediate factor 30.

The main credit goes to Rocky for the idea, with additional tuning and tests.
