  No limit at all. Captures can't take forever (in the worst case, the number of
pieces, which never happens in real games), so seing till the end is best, IMO.
  But don't forget to prune bad captures or the tree could explode. Use a SEE to
prune losing captures and don't try to caputre a pawn if you're a queen down
(compared to alpha), etc...
