This commit generalizes the feature transform to use vec_t macros
that are architecture defined instead of using a seperate code path for each one.
It should make some old architectures (MMX, including improvements by Fanael) faster
and make further such improvements easier in the future.
Includes some corrections to CI for mingw.

Currently we handle the UCI_Elo with a double randomization. This
seems not necessary and a bit involuted.
This patch removes the first randomization and unifies the 2 cases.

This reverts commit "Fix for Cygwin's environment build-profile", as it was
giving errors for "make clean" on some Windows environments. See comments in

Possibly somebody can propose a solution that would fix Cygwin builds and
not break on other system too, stay tuned! :-)

The Cygwin environment has two g++ compilers, each with a different problem
for compiling Stockfish at the moment:
(a) g++.exe : full posix build compiler, linked to cygwin dll.
=> This one has a problem embedding the net.
(b) x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++.exe : native Windows build compiler.
=> This one manages to embed the net, but has a problem related to libgcov
when we use the profile-build target of Stockfish.
This patch solves the problem for compiler (b), so that our recommended command line
if you want to build an optimized version of Stockfish on Cygwin becomes something
like the following (you can change the ARCH value to whatever you want, but note
the COMP and CXX variables pointing at the right compiler):
```
make -j profile-build ARCH=x86-64-modern COMP=mingw CXX=x86_64-w64-mingw32-c++.exe
```

This net is the result of training on data used by the Leela project. More precisely,
we shuffled T60 and T74 data kindly provided by borg (for different Tnn, the data is
a result of Leela selfplay with differently sized Leela nets).
The data is available at vondele's google drive:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mftuzYdl9o6tBaceR3d_VBQIrgKJsFpl.
The Leela data comes in small chunks of .binpack files. To shuffle them, we simply
used a small python script to randomly rename the files, and then concatenated them
using `cat`. As validation data we picked a file of T60 data. We will further investigate
T74 data.
The training for the NNUE architecture used 200 epochs with the Python trainer from
the Stockfish project. Unlike the previous run we tried with this data, this run does
not have adjusted scaling — not because we didn't want to, but because we forgot.
However, this training randomly skips 40% more positions than previous run. The loss
was very spiky and decreased slower than it does usually.

The idea is to initialize sum with the first element instead of zero.
Reduce one add_epi32 and one set_zero SIMD instructions for each output dimension.
sum = 0; for i = 1 to n sum += a[i] ->
sum = a[1]; for i = 2 to n sum += a[i]

covers the most important cases from the user perspective:
It embeds the default net in the binary, so a download of that binary will result
in a working engine with the default net. The engine will be functional in the default mode
without any additional user action.
It allows non-default nets to be used, which will be looked for in up to
three directories (working directory, location of the binary, and optionally a specific default directory).
This mechanism is also kept for those developers that use MSVC,
the one compiler that doesn't have an easy mechanism for embedding data.
It is possible to disable embedding, and instead specify a specific directory, e.g. linux distros might want to use
CXXFLAGS="-DNNUE_EMBEDDING_OFF -DDEFAULT_NNUE_DIRECTORY=/usr/share/games/stockfish/" make -j ARCH=x86-64 profile-build

Changes to deal with compilation (particularly profile-build) on macOS.
(1) The default toolchain has gcc masquerading as clang,
the previous Makefile was not picking up the required changes
to the different profiling tools.
(2) The previous Makefile test for gccisclang occurred before
a potential overwrite of CXX by COMPCXX
(3) llvm-profdata no longer runs as a command on macOS and
instead is invoked by ``xcrun llvm-profdata``
(4) Needs to support use of true gcc using e.g.
``make build ... COMPCXX=g++-10``
(5) enable profile-build in travis for macOS

The easiest way to use the NDK in conjunction with this Makefile (tested on linux-x86_64):
1. Download the latest NDK (r21d) from Google from https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads
2. Place and unzip the NDK in $HOME/ndk folder
3. Export the path variable e.g., `export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/ndk/android-ndk-r21d/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin`
4. cd to your Stockfish/src dir
5. Issue `make -j ARCH=armv8 COMP=ndk build` (use `ARCH=armv7` or `ARCH=armv7-neon` for older CPUs)
6. Optionally `make -j ARCH=armv8 COMP=ndk strip`
7. That's all. Enjoy!
