It is intended that ZeroTTable(0) is called for major changes to the board
as in starting a new game.  ZeroTTable(1) is used to signal a minor change
to the board as when a real move is made.

NEWAGE allows TTable entries to be recycled without explicitly clearing the
table.  The deeper evaluations are held longer before being recycled.
(Although TTdepthage[] is almost completly wrong it mostly works)

Even if the user did not pick the predicted move the TTable will contain
usefull evaluations folowing the users move or transpositions into the
users line.
