Permutation found using https://gist.github.com/AndrovT/359c831b7223c637e9156b01eb96949e.
Uses a greedy algorithm that goes sequentially through the output positions and
chooses a neuron for that position such that the number of nonzero quartets is the smallest.

Use block sparse input for the first layer.

Use block sparse input for the first fully connected layer on architectures with at least SSSE3.

Depending on the CPU architecture, this yields a speedup of up to 10%, e.g.

Update default net to nn-ea57bea57e32.nnue

Created by retraining an earlier epoch (ep659) of the experiment that led to the first SFNNv6 net:
- First retrained on the nn-0dd1cebea573 dataset
- Then retrained with skip 20 on a smaller dataset containing unfiltered Leela data
- And then retrained again with skip 27 on the nn-0dd1cebea573 dataset

The equivalent 7-step training sequence from scratch that led here was:

1. max-epoch 400, lambda 1.0, constant LR 9.75e-4, T79T77-filter-v6-dd.min.binpack
ep379 chosen for retraining in step2

2. max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.75, T60T70wIsRightFarseerT60T74T75T76.binpack
ep679 chosen for retraining in step3

3. max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.75, skip 28, nn-e1fb1ade4432 dataset
ep799 chosen for retraining in step4

4. max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.7, skip 28, nn-e1fb1ade4432 dataset
ep759 became nn-8d69132723e2.nnue (first SFNNv6 net)
ep659 chosen for retraining in step5

5. max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.7, skip 28, nn-0dd1cebea573 dataset
ep759 chosen for retraining in step6

6. max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.7, skip 20, leela-dfrc-v2-T77decT78janfebT79aprT80apr.binpack
ep639 chosen for retraining in step7

7. max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.7, skip 27, nn-0dd1cebea573 dataset
ep619 became nn-ea57bea57e32.nnue

For the last retraining (step7):

The earlier patch had conflicted with a faster SPRT passer, so this
was tested again after rebasing on latest master.

Update default net to nn-0dd1cebea573.nnue

Created by retraining an earlier epoch of the experiment leading to the first SFNNv6 net
on a more-randomized version of the nn-e1fb1ade4432.nnue dataset mixed with unfiltered
T80 apr2023 data. Trained using early-fen-skipping 28 and max-epoch 960.

The trainer settings and epochs used in the 5-step training sequence leading here were:
1. train from scratch for 400 epochs, lambda 1.0, constant LR 9.75e-4, T79T77-filter-v6-dd.min.binpack
2. retrain ep379, max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.75, T60T70wIsRightFarseerT60T74T75T76.binpack
3. retrain ep679, max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.75, skip 28, nn-e1fb1ade4432 dataset
4. retrain ep799, max-epoch 800, end-lambda 0.7, skip 28, nn-e1fb1ade4432 dataset
5. retrain ep439, max-epoch 960, end-lambda 0.7, skip 28, shuffled nn-e1fb1ade4432 + T80 apr2023

This net was epoch 559 of the final (step 5) retraining:

```

During data preparation, most binpacks were unminimized by removing positions with
score 32002 (`VALUE_NONE`). This makes the tradeoff of increasing dataset filesize
on disk to increase the randomness of positions in interleaved datasets.
The code used for unminimizing is at:

Move internal iterative reduction before probcut

This patch moves IIR before probcut which allows probcut
to be produced at lower depths. Comments in IIR are also slightly updated.
