Stockfish Polyglot:Updated December, 21 2018

Stockfish Polyglot:
Updated December, 21 2018
 
Intro:
Something diabolical has happened to the code, and you'll realize it when you will see the size of the executables.
I guess now Stockfish has followed the binary optimization initially conceived for asmFish.
CHANGELOG:
This distribution is the expansion of Stockfish beta having timestamp: 1545299238 - Simplify KBNK endgame implementation.
Almost 10 ELO points stronger than the previous versions, according the official Stockfish tests.
 
Stockfish Polyglot is none but the very own Stockfish with the only addition of the possibility to use Polyglot (.bin) books. In order to do that I used the library polybook.h from Brainfish and merged with the Stockfish code. This new update features the 'OwnBook' checkbox as requested, so that you can easily switch from the Polyglot book to the local CTG book (Chessbase softwares) or ABK book (Arena GUI). I've wandered through GitHub to recover the 'OwnBook' checkbox code (it needed just two mere rows..), luckily I've managed to find it and extract the part I needed to use.
This distribution is enhanced by the pgo-build option.
