This is an old Glaurung bug that prevented a Polyglot
book move to be read correctly in case of underpromotion.
This patch fixes the bug restoring support for both
queen and underpromotions.

Functional change due only to moves reorder. Anyhow after
5242 games at 15"+0.1 TC verified we have no regression.

Bug introduced in 9dcc2aad98
We can be asked to open a non-exsistent file,
in this case we should gracefully handle the
case and silently return instead of exiting.

It is a redundant boiler plate, just call initialization and
resource release directly from main()

To avoid nasty bugs due to silently overriding of
common operator we enable the templates on a type
by type base using partial template specialization.

Patch from Richard Lloyd (slightly edited from me), following the list
of changes as described by the author:
src/Makefile:
- Added PREFIX and BINDIR for the install: rule.
- Added a "make hpux" line to the help: rule.
- Added "make test"/"make check" rule that runs the $(PGOBENCH) command.
- "make clean" now additionally removes core and bench.txt.
- Added an hpux: rule.
- Added an install: rule to mkdir $(BINDIR), copy $(EXE) to $(BINDIR) and
then strip it.
- "make strip" now ensures that $(EXE) is built first before trying to
strip it.
- Hide errors and output from the g++ command used by the .depend: rule and
then touch .depend in case g++ isn't available.
- Hide errors from the "include .depend" in case .depend doesn't exist
(e.g. directly after a "make clean").
src/book.cpp and src/book.h:
- HP-UX's aCC really didn't like the const keywords used for the
Book::file_name() definitions, so they were removed. I checked that this
didn't affect a Linux build and it was still fine.
src/misc.cpp:
- HP-UX uses <sys/pstat.h> and pstat_getdynamic() to determine the number of
CPU cores, so added conditional code for that (if pstat_getdynamic() fails,
set the number of cores to 1).
src/tt.cpp:
- <xmmintrin.h> and _mm_prefetch() seem highly specific to the Intel x86(_64)
and gcc platforms - neither exist in HP-UX, so conditionally avoid that
code in HP-UX's case. Perhaps some sort of define is needed here
such as -DHAS_MM_PREFETCH that could be #ifdef'ed for instead?
Even after these changes, it's more convenient for HP-UX users to edit the
default: rule in the Makefile to run "$(MAKE) hpux" before they build
stockfish, but that's not a big deal if they're warned about that first (the
same applies to all other builds other than the standard "$(MAKE) gcc" one).

Remove a bunch of difficult and tricky code to test
legality of castle and ep moves and instead use a slower
but simpler check against the list of generated legal moves.
Because these moves are very rare the performance impact
is small but code semplification is ver big: almost 100 lines
of difficult code removed !
No functionality change. No performance change (strangely enough
there is no even minimal performance regression in pgo builds but
instead a slightly and unexpected increase).

Centralize in a single object all the global resources
management and avoid a bunch of sparse exit() calls.
This is more reliable and clean and more stick to C++ coding
practices.

Move closing of file in Book destructor. This
guarantees us against leaving the file open under
