Use a fraction of king danger in endgame score 

When SF has an attack on the opponent king in one flank, the huge 
midgame -> endgame gradient of the tapered eval prevents us to properly 
evaluate neutral exchanges on the other flank as the current king 
danger score is a pure midgame term. This may affect SF's ability to 
switch to defense in some positions. We add a small contribution 
of the king danger to the endgame score to limit this effect.
