When generating checks add possibly under-promotions In qsearch at depth 0 we generate only captures and checks. Queen promotion moves are generated among the captures, but under-promotion moves (both captures and non-captures) are never generated even if they could give a discovery check. This patch fixes this limitation extending generate_pawn_noncaptures() to generate also check moves when required. Apart for adding the (rare) case of an under-promotion that gives discovery check, the patch is also a good cleanup because removes generate_pawn_checks() altoghter. This patch does the code clean-up but not enables the functional change so to allow an easier debug. No functional change and no performance change (actually a very very small speed increase).
