Revert "Simplify Away Quadruple Extensions"

This reverts commit 4edd1a3

The unusual result of (combined) +12.0 +- 3.7 in the 2 VVLTC simplification SPRTs ran was the result of base having only 64MB of hash instead of 512MB (Asymmetric hash).
Vizvezdenec was the one to notice this.

Early Exit in Bitboards::sliding_attack()

he original code checks for occupancy within the loop condition. By moving this check inside the loop and adding an early exit condition, we can avoid unnecessary iterations if a blocking piece is encountered.

Update default main net to nn-c721dfca8cd3.nnue

Created by first retraining the spsa-tuned main net `nn-ae6a388e4a1a.nnue` with:
- using v6-dd data without bestmove captures removed
- addition of T80 mar2024 data
- increasing loss by 20% when Q is too high
- torch.compile changes for marginal training speed gains

And then SPSA tuning weights of epoch 899 following methods described in:
https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/5149

This net was reached at 92k out of 120k steps in this 70+0.7 th 7 SPSA tuning run:
https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/66413b7df9f4e8fc783c9bbb
Thanks to @Viren6 for suggesting usage of:
- c value 4 for the weights
- c value 128 for the biases

Scripts for automating applying fishtest spsa params to exporting tuned .nnue are in:
https://github.com/linrock/nnue-tools/tree/master/spsa

Before spsa tuning, epoch 899 was nn-f85738aefa84.nnue
https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/663e5c893a2f9702074bc167

After initially training with max-epoch 800, training was resumed with max-epoch 1000.
