Protej - UCI chess engine,  Author - Alex Brunetti Rating Chess Engines Diary CEDR=3082 v. dev-20250223a: Simplified the PST value management routine, saving a few bytes and slightly speeding up move generation (perft 7 from 11.18 to 11.08 seconds). Reconverted some functions for composing and decomposing middlegame and endgame score components into native code, as the overhead introduced by the assembly versions made them slightly less efficient overall. Found and fixed a bug related to the constants defining the maximum number of moves and plies, which were actually different across various parts of the program, leading to unpredictable consequences, despite being minor. Non-functional changes: replaced the old-style giant chessboard with one using the appropriate UTF characters for chess pieces, making it significantly more 'normal'. Updated the copyright year.
