Exporting the currently loaded network file
This PR adds an ability to export any currently loaded network.
The export_net command now takes an optional filename parameter.
If the loaded net is not the embedded net the filename parameter is required.
Two changes were required to support this:
* the "architecture" string, which is really just a some kind of description in the net, is now saved into netDescription on load and correctly saved on export.
* the AffineTransform scrambles weights for some architectures and sparsifies them, such that retrieving the index is hard. This is solved by having a temporary scrambled<->unscrambled index lookup table when loading the network, and the actual index is saved for each individual weight that makes it to canSaturate16. This increases the size of the canSaturate16 entries by 6 bytes.

Cleanup of likelyFailLow logic
This patch broadens and simplifies definition of PvNode that is likely to fail low.
New definition can be described as following "If node was already researched
at depth >= current depth and failed low there" which is more logical than the
previous version and takes less space + allows to not recompute it every time during move loop.

Change tempo with time and threads
Introduce variable tempo for nnue depending on logarithm of estimated
strength, where strength is the product of time and number of threads.
The original idea here was that NNUE is best with a slightly different
tempo value to classical, since its style of play is slightly different.
It turns out that the best tempo for NNUE varies with strength of play,
so a formula is used which gives about 19 for STC and 24 for LTC under
current fishtest settings.

Cleanup and simplify NNUE code.
A lot of optimizations happend since the NNUE was introduced
and since then some parts of the code were left unused. This
got to the point where asserts were have to be made just to
let people know that modifying something will not have any
effects or may even break everything due to the assumptions
being made. Removing these parts removes those inexisting
"false dependencies". Additionally:
* append_changed_indices now takes the king pos and stateinfo
explicitly, no more misleading pos parameter
* IndexList is removed in favor of a generic ValueList.
Feature transformer just instantiates the type it needs.
* The update cost and refresh requirement is deferred to the
feature set once again, but now doesn't go through the whole
FeatureSet machinery and just calls HalfKP directly.
* accumulator no longer has a singular dimension.
* The PS constants and the PieceSquareIndex array are made local
to the HalfKP feature set because they are specific to it and
DO differ for other feature sets.
* A few names are changed to more descriptive

Use classical eval for Bishop vs Pawns
NNUE evaluation is incapable of recognizing trivially drawn bishop endgames
(the wrong-colored rook pawn), which are in fact ubiquitous and stock standard
in chess analysis. Switching off NNUE evaluation in KBPs vs KPs endgames is
a measure that stops Stockfish from trading down to a drawn version of these
endings when we presumably have advantage. The patch is able to edge over master
in endgame positions.
Patch tested for Elo gain with the "endgame.epd" book, and verified for
non-regression with our usual book (see the pull request for details).

Keep more pawns
This patch increases the weight of pawns in the scale factor applied
to the output of the NNUE evaluation. This has the effect that Stockfish
will try a little bit harder to keep more pawns in position where the
engine has the advantage, and exchange more pawns in bad positions.

Allow using Intel SDE for PGO builds.
The software development emulator (SDE) allows to run binaries compiled
for architectures not supported by the actual CPU. This is useful to
do PGO builds for newer architectures. The SDE can currently be obtained from
https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/intel-software-development-emulator.html
This patch introduces a new optional makefile argument SDE_PATH.
If not empty it should contain the path to the sde executable
