d6bdcec52c Remove an useless assignment
The assignment (ss + 1)->excludedMove = Move::none() can be simplified away because when that line is reached, (ss + 1)->excludedMove is always already none. The only moment stack[x]->excludedMove is modified, is during singular search, but it is reset to none right after the singular search is finished.

1adf8e1ae6 VVLTC search tune
Parameters were tuned in 3 stages:

* Using an earlier L1-3072 net, and with triple extension margin manually set to 0: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/65ffdf5d0ec64f0526c544f2 (~30k games)
* Continue tuning, but with the previous master net (L1-2560). https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/660663f00ec64f0526c59c41 (~27k games)
* Starting with the parameters from step 2, use the current L1-3072 net, and allow the triple extension margin to be tuned starting from 0: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/660c16b8216a13d9498e7536 (40k games)

9032c6cbe7 Transform search output to engine callbacks
Part 2 of the Split UCI into UCIEngine and Engine refactor.
This creates function callbacks for search to use when an update should occur.
The benching in uci.cpp for example does this to extract the total nodes
searched.

299707d2c2 Split UCI into UCIEngine and Engine
This is another refactor which aims to decouple uci from stockfish. A new engine
class manages all engine related logic and uci is a "small" wrapper around it.

In the future we should also try to remove the need for the Position object in
the uci and replace the options with an actual options struct instead of using a
map. Also convert the std::string's in the Info structs a string_view.

0ef5d05102 Adjust best value after a pruned quiet move
Logic somewhat similar to how we adjust best value after pruned captures
in qsearch, but in search this patch does it after pruned quiet moves
and also to not full scale of futility value but to smth in between
best value and futility value.

d99f89506b VVLTC search tune
This set of parameters was derived from 3 tuning attempts:

    https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/65d19ab61d8e83c78bfd8436 (80+0.8 x8, ~40k games)
    Then tuned with one of linrock's early L1-3072 nets:
    https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/65def7b04b19edc854ebdec8 (VVLTC, ~36k games)
    Starting from the result of this tuning, the parameters were then tuned with the current master net:
    https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/65f11c420ec64f0526c46fc4 (VVLTC, ~45k games)

Additionally, at the start of the third tuning phase, 2 parameters were manually changed:

    Notably, the triple extension margin was decreased from 78 to 22. This idea was given by Vizvezdenec:
    https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/65f0a2360ec64f0526c46752.
    The PvNode extension margin was also adjusted from 50 to 40.

This tune also differs from previous tuning attempts by tuning the evaluation thresholds for smallnet and psqt-only.
The former was increased through the tuning, and this is hypothesized to scale better at VVLTC,
although there is not much evidence of it.

9b92ada935 Base WDL model on material count and normalize evals dynamically
This PR proposes to change the parameter dependence of Stockfish's
internal WDL model from full move counter to material count. In addition
it ensures that an evaluation of 100 centipawns always corresponds to a
50% win probability at fishtest LTC, whereas for master this holds only
at move number 32. See also
https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/4920 and the
discussion therein.

The new model was fitted based on about 340M positions extracted from
5.6M fishtest LTC games from the last three weeks, involving SF versions
from e67cc979fd (SF 16.1) to current
master.

The involved commands are for
[WDL_model](https://github.com/official-stockfish/WDL_model) are:
```
./updateWDL.sh --firstrev e67cc979fd
python scoreWDL.py updateWDL.json --plot save --pgnName update_material.png --momType "material" --momTarget 58 --materialMin 10 --modelFitting optimizeProbability
```

The anchor `58` for the material count value was chosen to be as close
as possible to the observed average material count of fishtest LTC games
at move 32 (`43`), while not changing the value of
`NormalizeToPawnValue` compared to the move-based WDL model by more than
1.

The patch only affects the displayed cp and wdl values.

1a26d698de Refactor Network Usage
Continuing from PR #4968, this update improves how Stockfish handles network
usage, making it easier to manage and modify networks in the future.

With the introduction of a dedicated Network class, creating networks has become
straightforward. See uci.cpp:
```cpp
NN::NetworkBig({EvalFileDefaultNameBig, "None", ""}, NN::embeddedNNUEBig)
```

The new `Network` encapsulates all network-related logic, significantly reducing
the complexity previously required to support multiple network types, such as
the distinction between small and big networks #4915.

Note: The small net and psqt-only thresholds have been moved to
evaluate.h. The reasoning is that these values are used in both
`evaluate.cpp` and `evaluate_nnue.cpp`, and thus unifying their usage
avoids inconsistencies during testing, where one occurrence is changed
without the other (this happened during the search tune SPRT).

In theory, master could stop search when run with `go mate 247` and return a TB loss (not a mate score). Also fixes the spelling of opponenWorsening.

748791f80d Fix go mate x in multithreading
Fixes two issues with master for go mate x:

- when running go mate x in losing positions, master always goes to the
  maximal depth, arguably against what the UCI protocol demands

- when running go mate x in winning positions with multiple
  threads, master may return non-mate scores from the search (this issue
  is present in stockfish since at least sf16) The issues are fixed by
  (a) also checking if score is mate -x and by (b) only letting
  mainthread stop the search for go mate x commands, and by not looking
  for a best thread but using mainthread as per the default. Related:
    niklasf/python-chess#1070

1db969e620 Reduce futility_margin if opponents last move was bad
This reduces the futiltiy_margin if our opponents last move was bad by
around ~1/3 when not improving and ~1/2.7 when improving, the idea being
to retroactively futility prune moves that were played, but turned out
to be bad.  A bad move is being defined as their staticEval before their
move being lower as our staticEval now is. If the depth is 2 and we are
improving the opponent worsening flag is not set, in order to not risk
having a too low futility_margin, due to the fact that when these
conditions are met the futility_margin already drops quite low.

bf2c7306ac Use node counting to early stop search
This introduces a form of node counting which can
be used to further tweak the usage of our search
time.
The current approach stops the search when almost
all nodes are searched on a single move.

The idea originally came from Koivisto, but the
implemention is a bit different, Koivisto scales
the optimal time by the nodes effort and then
determines if the search should be stopped.
We just scale down the `totalTime` and stop the
search if we exceed it and the effort is large
enough.

This patch does similar thing to how it's done for
qsearch - in case of fail high adjust result to
lower value. Difference is that it is done only
for non-pv nodes and it's depth dependent - so
lower depth entries will have bigger adjustment
and higher depth entries will have smaller
adjustment.

The most significant change is the triple extension parameter, from 200 to 78. This presumably improves scaling.
Additionally, the value < singularBeta - 2 condition for double extensions was removed.
This can simply be considered a parameter tweak from 2 to 0.

f2b6b5cfc9 Introduce Triple Extensions
This replaces singularquietLMR with triple instead of double extending non-capture ttmoves that have value far below singularBeta. This threshold value is initially set to 200, there is scope for more scaling by reducing it as occured with double extensions.

fcbb02ffde Use ttPv in depth condition of singular extensions
This replaces the PvNode condition and tte Pv call previously with using
the precomputed ttPv, and also removes the multiplier of 2.  This new
depth condition occurs with approximately equal frequency (47%) to the
old depth condition (measured when the other conditions in the if are
true), so non-linear scaling behaviour isn't expected.
