New version chess engine: Perseus 1.0 JA

Perseus - UCI Chess Engine

Author: TheRealGioviok

v.1.0:

Finally out!

+250 LTC elo on balanced book over previous version.

Thanks to all the wonderful people in the stockfish discord server, an particular thanks to @Ciekce and @Bonfra04 for their contributions.

Moving forward, I hope to be able to fix a lot of the "bug that gain elo" that seem to be so recurrent in Perseus.

While the Perseus.exe executable should provide a good degree of compatibility with older cpus, it is strongly advised to use a faster more optimized executable. These are Perseus_hashwell.exe for intel based platforms and Perseus_znver2.exe for amd cpus.

For anyone interested in building from source, using clang++ is recomended, as it gives a decent nps speedup.

Till next time ;)
