Update default net to nn-0dd1cebea573.nnue

Created by retraining an earlier epoch of the experiment leading to the first SFNNv6 net
on a more-randomized version of the nn-e1fb1ade4432.nnue dataset mixed with unfiltered
T80 apr2023 data. Trained using early-fen-skipping 28 and max-epoch 960.

The trainer settings and epochs used in the 5-step training sequence leading here were:
1. train from scratch for 400 epochs, lambda 1.0, constant LR 9.75e-4, T79T77-filter-v6-dd.min.binpack
2. retrain ep379, max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.75, T60T70wIsRightFarseerT60T74T75T76.binpack
3. retrain ep679, max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.75, skip 28, nn-e1fb1ade4432 dataset
4. retrain ep799, max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.7, skip 28, nn-e1fb1ade4432 dataset
5. retrain ep439, max-epoch 960, end-lambda 0.7, skip 28, shuffled nn-e1fb1ade4432 + T80 apr2023

This net was epoch 559 of the final (step 5) retraining:

```

During data preparation, most binpacks were unminimized by removing positions with
score 32002 (`VALUE_NONE`). This makes the tradeoff of increasing dataset filesize
on disk to increase the randomness of positions in interleaved datasets.
The code used for unminimizing is at:
