Correct initial piece positioning #20

At present, the kings start on the d-file and queens on the e-file. This is the reverse of the standard, which requires the queen to be placed on her own colour (white queen on light square, black queen on dark square), with a light square at the bottom right for each player. Since the player makes the first move against the computer, his pieces should adopt the white convention with the queen to the left of the king from his perspective.

Affected lines look like 1010 to 1016 of SinglePlayerBoard.java and 1444 to 1450 of MultiPlayerBoard.java.

This is an easy change, it can be implemented in the next update. That said, in multiplayer, both players are on the bottom from their perspective

Queen and king positions swapped as of latest commit
