Chess engine: Jangine 2022.12.27 (Windows and Linux)

Jangine is a chess engine (computer program that plays chess) I wrote in 2022 (parts in 2015).

Language choice:
- C (later C++) was chosen in 2015 due to superior speed over most languages.
 - Because I had no C/C++ experience in 2015 (and still don't have very much), there are code quality issues.
 - Since many features (e.g. using a std::map vs a static C array) of C++ are too slow for my use case I am thinking of switching the engine back to C entirely.

v.2022.12.27:
Added Null Move Pruning
