-/// Constructor for the MovePicker class. Apart from the position for which
-/// it is asked to pick legal moves, MovePicker also wants some information
-/// to help it to return the presumably good moves first, to decide which
-/// moves to return (in the quiescence search, for instance, we only want to
-/// search captures, promotions and some checks) and about how important good
-/// move ordering is at the current node.
