Changes:
- updated to 31 March stockfish development
- .bin opening book support (copied and implemented from Brainfish)
- MagicTacticSolver renamed to FastTacticSolver
- 3 available versions of engine (modern, bmi2, old)
- made cute logo in inksacpe
- different equation for dynamic contempt (as an option to choose or not to choose)
- Analysis Toolbox
- some simplifications

In next post i ll copy-paste text from file included in .zip file with Thothfish but here few more words of explanation.

Mine equation for dynamic contempt looks this way:
int dct = (ct - 24) + rootMoves.size()/2 + (rootMoves[1].score/(-200) + previousScore/(-2) + alpha/(-4))/3;

and original one:
int dct = ct + 88 * previousScore / (abs(previousScore) + 200);

Please don't ask what exactly it does because i was putting literally all possible things in this equation and testing them even without proper understanding. Option which was chosen in the end is just a version which passed most of my tests. It affects on score and playstyle i guess and hope that only in positive manner.

The bigger innovation is Analysis Toolbox, should work fine and bring a lot of new possibilities.
