[Bug-gnubg] idea for faster rollout cube decision

Quite often I find myself rolling out a cube decision where I'm only interested in one of the two rows of results. Sometimes the double is clear and it's just the take decision I'm interested in (bottom row). At other times it's a trivial pass but might be too good and I'm only interested in the No Double equity (top row).

It would be nice to have a feature to just do either of the two rollouts peformed by a rollout cube decision. In the Annotation window, I could imagine a button for "rollout no double only" for the doubler's turn, and if there's an actual double, a button for "rollout double/take only" for the taker/passer's turn.

Especially for close too good decisions (but huge passes) this would gain a lot of time (more than a factor 2 even) as they'll often be passed later anyway, sometimes right on the next turn. Right now though the rollout would spend a lot of time with the cube being taken and the game being played until the end or until the very unlikely recube/drop.

Cheers,
