Fix _ShouldWeConsiderThisMove's SEE-purity bug and ComputeMoveScore's

killer-mate edge case; fix PV-display cycle hang.

_ShouldWeConsiderThisMove (QSearch's move-consider gate) read the raw,
move-ordering-biased mvf[].iValue directly instead of going through
ComputeMoveScore, so it inherited the same +120-ish flat bias (plus
small MVV-LVA nudges) on winning/even captures that ComputeMoveScore
was already fixed to strip out. Fixed via the same MOVE_SCORE_ORDERING_BIAS
subtraction, now factored into a shared chess.h macro. Restoring the old
effective leniency required an explicit QSEARCH_CONSIDER_MARGIN (120,
A/B'd against 0/60/120 on ecm_ringers/confident_quick/hard_quick) rather
than assuming the bug's magnitude was itself a meaningful margin -- net
effect vs the pre-fix baseline is -2 solves on hard_quick, accepted as
the cost of correctness (see lmr_testing/RESULTS.md for the full sweep).

ComputeMoveScore separately mishandled quiet killer-mate moves: they can
reach SORT_THESE_FIRST via generate.c's killer-mate bonus (unrelated to
the capture-bias path), so the bias-subtraction was wrongly applied to a
move that never had that bias. Gated the subtraction on
IS_CAPTURE_OR_PROMOTION(mv); quiet moves (including killer-mate ones) now
correctly collapse to 0, per the function's contract of estimating a
move's value on the 100=1-pawn axis. Measured as a no-op on all three
suites -- rare in practice, but a real correctness fix. Left a comment
documenting two candidate refinements for scoring quiet moves as
non-uniform future work, deliberately not implemented (each needs its
own isolated test).

FinishPVTailFromHash (cosmetic PV-display hash-walk, used only for
printing) had no cycle detection, so a drawish/repeating position could
spin until the output buffer filled instead of terminating naturally.
Added visited-position-signature tracking and a <REP> marker.
