Skip uneventful tricks should skip tricks that don’t change amount of points at end of round

Since there are only 3 cases that scoring is based on (<2, 3-4, and 5 tricks taken by the makers and whether maker is going alone), skip uneventful tricks should include if it’s sure whether the maker will be in any of these cases

I considered this while developing the game, but actually this did not save much time compared to automatic TRAM and was more confusing.
As the last trick is automatically played, this can skip at most 1 trick (the penultimate trick) only.
