Retire null search verification

Tested with SPRT in simplification mode [-4.00,0.00],
this ensures that the patch is (very probably) not
a regression.

Don't fear races when are harmless

Actually race conditions do exist in an engine, just
think for a moment to TT concurrent access. Racy code
is not a problem per se, if the consequences are well
known and correctly handled.

In case of TT access we ensure that the TT move is validated
before to be tried, here we just retry the same move in less
that 1 case out of a million: this is totally harmless considering
that very probably the second time the move is tried we get
immediately a TT hit and search quickly returns.

So we simplify the code for no harm.

No fuctional change (in single thread case)
Inline common path of pos.gives_check

Test for common case which, when running default
stockfish bench, avoids 96% of 19 million calls to
pos.gives_check().

Yields to a 2-4% speed up according to platform.
