Subject: Get rid of ReducedStateInfo struct

Get rid of ReducedStateInfo struct

ReducedStateInfo is a redundant struct that is also
prone to errors, indeed must be updated any time is
updated StateInfo. It is a trick to partial copy a
StateInfo object in do_move().

This patch takes advantage of builtin macro offsetof()
to directly calculate the number of quad words to copy.
Note that we still use memcpy to do the actual job of
copying the (48 bytes) of data.

Idea by Richard Vida.

No functional and no performance change.
