/* This helper is intended to detect semeai kind of positions where
 * the tactical reading can't be trusted enough to allow amalgamation
 * over presumably tactically dead strings.
 *
 * It has turned out to be best not to trust tactical reading of three
 * and four liberty strings at all. Not trusting two liberty strings
 * leads to an underamalgamation and unnecessarily many dragons on the
 * board. Therefore we try to detect two liberty strings with an
 * enclosed nakade, which after capturing leads to an unreliable
 * reading at three or four liberties.
 *
 * More specifically we check whether the string has a neighbor with
 * the following properties:
 * 1. At least three stones in size.
 * 2. All its liberties are common liberties with the string.
 * 3. It has no second order liberties.
 * 4. Its liberties are adjacent to no other strings than itself and
 *    the primary string.
 *
 * If we find such a neighbor 1 is returned, otherwise 0.
