Tweak double singular condition (Topo's patch)

This patch relax a little bit the condition for doubly singular moves
(ie moves that are so forced that we think that they deserve a local
double extension of the search). We lower the margin and allow up to
six such double extensions in the path between the root and the critical
node.

Original idea by Siad Daboul (@TopoIogist) in PR #3709
