Raise penalty blocked enemy pawn on 6th rank

Idea from Lyudmil Tsvetkov.

The value seems to be raised a bit abruptly, but as
Gary said, a blocked pawn on the sixth rank has been
instrumental in limiting king mobility in multiple
losses that I've seen from SF. A blocked pawn on fifth
rank is much less serious on the king safety impact.
