[tvtpvezr] Lessening first-mover advantage

White is considered to have a first-move advantage in chess.  We lessen it by limiting white's choices for first moves (only).

One extreme, only e4 and d4 are prohibited.

Another extreme, all knight moves and double-pawn advances are prohibited for white's first move only.

Fine tuning like komi in Go 囲碁
