sscg13andJoost VandeVondele 83e42045a6 Update NNUE architecture to SFNNv12 and net nn-7e1657811c6d.nnue
This net is trained with https://github.com/sscg13/nettest/blob/no-king-attacker/threats.yaml.

sscg13andJoost VandeVondele fac506bdf3 Update NNUE architecture to SFNNv11 and net nn-3dd094f3dfcf.nnue
Removes threat features of the form piece -> king, thus saving 13MB of net
space and approximately 0.8 threat feature updates per incremental accumulator
update.

sscg13andDisservin 32292d1e62 Represent threat weights directly as i8
LEB128 adds no additional compression and adds extra complexity to the
code currently.

+1 8e5392d79a Update NNUE architecture to SFNNv10 with Threat Inputs and net nn-49c1193b131c.nnue
This commit introduces Full Threat Input features, which are a subset of Piece(Square)-Piece(Square) pairs. In any given position, the active features consist of pairs where the second piece’s square lies in the attack set of the first piece. This is an extremely simplified explanation that leaves out many details. The already-used HalfKAv2_hm feature set completes the input features.
Minor quantization changes have also been made.

The net nn-49c1193b131c.nnue was trained by vondele using the following setup: https://github.com/vondele/nettest/blob/7de71238e9b295e3f88ed7c9c5936af632c9b981/threats.yaml

A graphical version of an earlier scheme (with less refinement) that illustrates the core concepts can be found attached.
