Increase null verification threshold to 12 plies

Increasing depth limit to 10 plies seems stronger
after 16K games at 15"+0.05 (ELO: +3.56) and also
repeating the test at 60"+0.05 TC:

ELO: 2.08 +-3.1 (95%) LOS: 90.9%
Total: 16000 W: 2641 L: 2545 D: 10814

Moreover setting the limit to 12 is proved stronger
then limit set to 10 by direct SPRT test at 15"+0.05:

ELO: 2.56 +-2.0 (95%) LOS: 99.5%
Total: 46568 W: 9240 L: 8897 D: 28431

So we directly set the limit to 12, the strongest setup.
