Subject: Pawn race tb

It might be interesting to make a pawn race tablebase for large numbers of
pieces.  Suppose that you have 2 king and x/y pawns left.  It might be
worthwhile to compute "how many plies till I convert?  How many plies till enemy
converts?"  If I have a two ply advantage, it seems significant.

If you have a king and three pawns on both sides, we could never count all
possibilities.  But we could find out how fast we can convert.
