Ajax Chess 2.0

The chess engine is quite a bit stronger now. I still highly recommend Chrome, as I get about 130k NPS on my machine, while other browsers are not nearly as good.

It has no pawn evaluations at all, so the good chess players here should be able to exploit that fact (I can't :)).

New features:
- Mobility evaluation (thanks Fruit)
- Bishop pair
- Rep-draw detection
- Better null-move pruning (thanks Stockfish)
- Better LMR (and again, thanks Stockfish)
- Bugfix with using hash move
- Some speed optimizations

Thanks, I wish there was some way to measure its performance in STS. :)
