NOTE: 6x6 weights are as-yet untrained
On the performance side:
* switch from linked-list chaining hash table to direct mapping
* cache check_win by hash
* persist transposition tables across plies (this was a big deal and difficult to puzzle out)
* add align directives to the network floats
* prepare_nn_input gained a small LUT to avoid branching (i suppose you might call this 1D embedding)
* apply mtune=native for the native builds
On the correctness side:
* Zobrist has now includes the ply parity
* the network now predicts something in [-1, 1] using tanh (approximated by polynomials)
* the training object is now MSE because we're learning a value estimate
* use .clangd instead of compile_commands.json
On the training side:
* completely forgo human-derived data set
* implement td(lambda), self-play, tournaments

we needed to be saving the alpha before the search loop in which we modified it. At this point, though i can't remember, i expect that this is the cause of whatever "instability" the comment was talking about that would have prevented us from using >= in the TT lookup.

Gone is the convolutional neural network, for it turns out not only is
it more difficult to train, but all of the extra information about
board layers didn't make much of a difference at this size.
So cnn1986 has been replaced by nn1986, a standard, two-layer, dense
nn configured as a binary classifier and (mis)used in that capacity.
Note: total number of parameters is unchanged.
HARK: this new nn exposes a bug somewhere in ctak. Run ctlm with
self-play to see the completely borked board state at the end.
