Subject: Revert per-thread history tables
X-Git-Url: https://git.sesse.net/?p=stockfish;a=commitdiff_plain;h=b45936a8c781083ada45dc5b503a5ea27d4cf059

Revert per-thread history tables

Testing on Joona QUAD failed to give any
advantage. Actually we had a little loss:

Mod - Orig: 342.0 - 374.0

No functional change.
