Resolves #11565 according to https://github.com/dignissimus/lichess-unpackaged/tree/main/game-lengths

I used the modal terminating move number for each variant. Chess960 and Standard remain at 30 moves for consistency. I then rounded move thresholds to the nearest five and bounded them between 10 and 30.

This change is pending comment from the variant team leaders.

Atomic

Message

atomic should be no more than 10, and crazyhouse really shouldn't be more than 20 either

Message

Horde

Summary

  • The original 50 limit for Horde is reasonable
    • I can potentially revert the 30 move cap

Message

imo 49 is reasonable and could be as high as 60. the way a draw naturally occurs in horde is white promotes but can't mate and black can't trap the queen, these positions take a REALLY long time to get to

ok there's also stalemates ig but those also take a while, maybe 60 is too much

iirc it's usually best to not remove dest translation files even though the trans-lint gets mad at it since it creates merge conflicts when pulling new translations after crowdin removed them as well due to the source strings going missing. maybe we should remove the deletion script again 🤔
