I propose to eliminate en passant capture. They are a pain to code, imagine all
the "if () {}" that we could eliminate!. Now that I think better, I would be
great to eliminate the chance for the pawns to move two squares at the
beginning. En passant is not issue in that case and coding will be even easier!
