Allow run-time loading / unloading of engines

-

A tricky issue, because in the current code initializing the engine is intertwined -with initializing XBoard. And the whole idea is to be able to switch engine without -losing your current settings or indeed your current game. So it will require some -good thought about which options need to be reset (like -fd, for sure), and which -should be kept.

Implement a tournament manager in XBoard

-

Currently XBoard supports only two-player matches. If run-time changing of the -engine becomes possible, it wold be nice if people could also perform automatic -round-robins or gauntlets between a group of engines.

- -

Processing of engine PVs before display

-

Currently XBoard just displays what the engine prints for PV in its thinking output -literally. Which often means long algebraic. It would be nice if the user can choose -the display format, so it can be SAN or even some other format (e.g. descriptive -notation or some specific Xangqi or Shogi format), possibly through invoking an -external processor.
