Make using quiescence search implicit

If search depth is less than ONE_PLY call qsearch(), no need to check the
depth condition at various call sites of search().

Also helps gcc to find some optimizations (smaller binary, some speedup).
Thanks to Aram and Stefan for identifying an oversight in an early version.

Closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/1487

No functional change.
