Update default net to nn-d0b74ce1e5eb.nnue

train a net using training data with a
heavier weight on positions having 16 pieces on the board. More specifically,
with a relative weight of `i * (32-i)/(16 * 16)+1` (where i is the number of pieces on the board).

This is done with the trainer branch https://github.com/glinscott/nnue-pytorch/pull/173

The command used is:
```
python train.py $datafile $datafile $restarttype $restartfile --gpus 1 --threads 4 --num-workers 12 --random-fen-skipping=3 --batch-size 16384 --progress_bar_refresh_rate 300 --smart-fen-skipping --features=HalfKAv2_hm^ --lambda=1.00 --max_epochs=$epochs --seed $RANDOM --default_root_dir exp/run_$i
```
The datafile is T60T70wIsRightFarseerT60T74T75T76.binpack, the restart is from the master net.

Stockfish 15

Official release version of Stockfish 15

Bench: 8129754

---

A new major release of Stockfish is now available at https://stockfishchess.org

Stockfish 15 continues to push the boundaries of chess, providing unrivalled
analysis and playing strength. In our testing, Stockfish 15 is ahead of
Stockfish 14 by 36 Elo points and wins nine times more game pairs than it
loses[1].

Improvements to the engine have made it possible for Stockfish to end up
victorious in tournaments at all sorts of time controls ranging from bullet to
classical and even at Fischer random chess[2]. At CCC, Stockfish won all of
the latest tournaments: CCC 16 Bullet, Blitz and Rapid, CCC 960 championship,
and the CCC 17 Rapid. At TCEC, Stockfish won the Season 21, Cup 9, FRC 4 and
in the current Season 22 superfinal, at the time of writing, has won 16 game
pairs and not yet lost a single one.

This progress is the result of a dedicated team of developers that comes up
with new ideas and improvements. For Stockfish 15, we tested nearly 13000
different changes and retained the best 200. These include the fourth
generation of our NNUE network architecture, as well as various search
improvements. To perform these tests, contributors provide CPU time for
testing, and in the last year, they have collectively played roughly a
billion chess games. In the last few years, our distributed testing
framework, Fishtest, has been operated superbly and has been developed and
improved extensively. This work by Pasquale Pigazzini, Tom Vijlbrief, Michel
Van den Bergh, and various other developers[3] is an essential part of the
success of the Stockfish project.

Indeed, the Stockfish project builds on a thriving community of enthusiasts
to offer a free and open-source chess engine that is robust, widely
available, and very strong. We invite our chess fans to join the Fishtest
testing framework and programmers to contribute to the project[4].

Decrease LMR at PV nodes with low depth.

This patch lessens the Late Move Reduction at PV nodes with low depth. Previously the affect of depth on LMR was independant of nodeType. The idea behind this patch is that at PV nodes, LMR at low depth is will miss out on potential alpha-raising moves.

Use NNUE in low piece endgames close to the root.

This patch enforces that NNUE evaluation is used for endgame positions at shallow depth (depth <= 9).
Classic evaluation will still be used for high imbalance positions when the depth is high or there are many pieces.

Play more positional in endgames

This patch chooses the delta value (which skews the nnue evaluation between positional and materialistic)
depending on the material: If the material is low, delta will be higher and the evaluation is shifted
to the positional value. If the material is high, the evaluation will be shifted to the psqt value.
I don't think slightly negative values of delta should be a concern.

In movepicker increase priority for moves that evade a capture

This idea is a mix of koivisto idea of threat history and heuristic that
was simplified some time ago in LMR - decreasing reduction for moves that evade a capture.
Instead of doing so in LMR this patch does it in movepicker - to do this it
calculates squares that are attacked by different piece types and pieces that are located
on this squares and boosts up weight of moves that make this pieces land on a square that is not under threat.
Boost is greater for pieces with bigger material values.
Special thanks to koivisto and seer authors for explaining me ideas behind threat history.

Remove ttPv tree shrinking.

Via the ttPv flag an implicit tree of current and former PV nodes is maintained. In addition this tree is grown or shrinked at the leafs dependant on the search results. But now the shrinking step has been removed.

As the frequency of ttPv nodes decreases with depth the shown scaling behavior (STC barely passed but LTC scales well) of the tests was expected.

Decrease reductions in Lmr for some Pv nodes

This patch makes us reduce less in Lmr at pv nodes in case of static eval being far away from static evaluation of position.
Idea is that if it's the case then probably position is pretty complex so we can't be sure about how reliable LMR is so we need to reduce less.

Generalize the feature transform to use vec_t macros

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.

Sort captures

This patch (partially) sort captures in analogy to quiet moves. All
three movepickers are affected, hence `depth` is added as an argument in
probcut's.

Clean up and simplify some nnue code.

Remove some unnecessary code and it's execution during inference. Also the change on line 49 in nnue_architecture.h results in a more efficient SIMD code path through ClippedReLU::propagate().

Adjust usage of LMR for 2nd move in move ordering

Current master prohibits usage of LMR for 2nd move at rootNode. This patch also disables LMR for 2nd move not only at rootNode but also at first PvNode that is a reply to rootNode.

Add ARM NDK to Github Actions matrix

- set the variable only for the required tests to keep simple the yml file
- use NDK 21.x until will be fixed the Stockfish static build problem
with NDK 23.x
- set the test for armv7, armv7-neon, armv8 builds:
- use armv7a-linux-androideabi21-clang++ compiler for armv7 armv7-neon
- enforce a static build
- silence the Warning for the unused compilation flag "-pie" with
the static build, otherwise the Github workflow stops
- use qemu to bench the build and get the signature

Many thanks to @pschneider1968 that made all the hard work with NDK :)
