Remove shuffle extension
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
It was noted in an earlier patch that all of the positions below needed the
Shuffle Detection idea to be solved:

3r4/p3r1pk/PpBb1pRp/1KpPpP1P/2P1P1R1/8/8/8 b - - 32 86
8/8/8/1k6/2p5/p1K5/N2B2r1/8 b - - 59 109
1r4k1/1r1bq3/4p1p1/3pPpPp/pNpN1P1P/P1PnQ3/1PK5/1R3R2 b - - 13 82
5k2/3b4/5p2/p1p1pPp1/PpPpP1Pp/1P1P3P/8/3R1K2 w - - 20 1

But Stockfish has envolved a bit since the Shuffle Detection patch introduction,
and this patch proves Stockfish is able to solves these drawn positions without it,
even on single core without EGTB.

----------------------------

Example of search by Michael Byrne for the FEN position:
q1B5/1P1q4/8/8/8/6R1/8/1K1k4 w - - 0 1

This position is win for white and the only moves that wins is Rg1 - all other moves
either draw or lose. With single core and 1024M hash, it is solved without shuffle
detection in 38 seconds on my machine (with no EGTB). This was the position that was
locked in a loop in the initial shuffle detection patch!

Precisely, white can only win outside the 100 move rule
