Another see() shortcut Because we only generate legal moves we can assume a king cannot be recaptured, so we can safely return immediately with the captured piece score. If the move turns out to be illegal it will be pruned anyhow, independently from SEE value. This gives a good speed up especially now that we SEE-test all the evasions that are always legal and very often are king moves. Another optimization catches almost 15% of cases, unfortunatly we have already calculated the very expensive attacks, so benefits are not so big anyway.
