Final time management setup

This is an even safer setup proposed and tested
by Alexandre Meirelles.

Regression testing of 40K games at 10+0.05 show
result is stable both against current master:

ELO: -0.29 +-2.2 (95%) LOS: 39.7%
Total: 40000 W: 8010 L: 8043 D: 23947

and again original master (the one with smallest
time parameters):

ELO: 1.71 +-2.2 (95%) LOS: 93.8%
Total: 40000 W: 8325 L: 8128 D: 23547

Alexandre verified with LittleBlitzer time losses are
greately reduced with this setup:

Games Completed = 2100 of 3000 (Avg game length = 35.745 sec)

Settings = RR/128MB/15000ms+50ms/M 1000cp for 12 moves, D 150 moves/
Time = 39200 sec elapsed, 16800 sec remaining
 1.  Stockfish 190913             1091.5/2100    803-720-577      (L: m=313 t=1 i=0 a=406)    (D: r=278 i=91 f=136 s=8 a=64)    (tpm=212.5 d=14.75 nps=925427)
 2.  Houdini 2.0 w32              1008.5/2100    720-803-577      (L: m=250 t=299 i=0 a=254)    (D: r=278 i=91 f=136 s=8 a=64)    (tpm=204.1 d=12.04 nps=1326351)

No functional change.
