We will be using sum of first continuation history and main history (similar to movepicker) instead of statScore for the first case. passed STC https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5ff87b2f6019e097de3ef09b LLR: 2.93 (-2.94,2.94) {-0.25,1.25} Total: 63992 W: 5887 L: 5678 D: 52427 Elo +1.13 Ptnml(0-2): 201, 4561, 22305, 4686, 243 passed LTC https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5ff8b6206019e097de3ef0b2 LLR: 2.94 (-2.94,2.94) {0.25,1.25} Total: 81216 W: 3127 L: 2880 D: 75209 Elo +1.06 Ptnml(0-2): 46, 2544, 35176, 2801, 41 closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/3293 bench 4395984 see source

As a side effect, certain illegal fens have different, and slightly more logical move generation. There is no intend to maintain particular behavior for such non-reachable fens.

Calling it via thisThread-> is not needed since capture history was already declared by this time - so removing makes code slightly shorter and easier to follow. closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/3297 No functional change. see source

It leads to wrong data access for AVX512. There is no error because in current implementation it is guaranteed that there is an array of zeros after weights so zero multiplied by something is returned and sum is correct. It is a mistake that can lead to unexpected bugs in the future. Used AVX2 instructions for smaller input size. No measurable slowdown on avx512. closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/3298 No functional change. see source
