This helps resolving consecutive FH's during aspiration more efficiently

This was a cooperation between me and Michael Stembera:
-me recognizing SF having problems with resolving FH's efficiently at
high depths, thus starting some tests based on consecutive FH's.
-mstembera picking up the idea with first success at STC & LTC (so full
credits to him!)
-me suggesting how to resolve the issues pinpointed by S.G on PR official-stockfish#1768
and finally restricting the logic to the main thread so that it don't
regresses at multi-thread.
