Chess engine: Obsidian 16.02



Obsidian, an UCI chess engine written in c++
Rating Chess Engines Diary CEDR=3732

v.16:
This new version includes a few search patches and a new NNUE architecture, finally with layers.
I dropped support for pre-AVX2, but I might add it back if requested to.
For testers: if you tested 14.24, don't test 15.0, they are exactly the same.
