/// entries in the table are divided by 2. It is difficult to guess what
/// the ideal value of this constant is. Scaling down the scores often has
/// the effect that parts of the search tree which have been searched
/// recently have a bigger importance for move ordering than the moves which
/// have been searched a long time ago.
///
/// Note that HistoryMax should probably be changed whenever the constant
/// OnePly in depth.h is changed. This is somewhat annoying. Perhaps it
/// would be better to scale down the history table at regular intervals?
