Make a variable that tells for which side the engine has to move.
Possible values for the variable:
1. none: both side are operated by the user
2. black: engine controls the black side and has to make moves for it.
3. white: engine controls the white side.
4. both: engine controls both sides.

command changes:
For 'new' command:
Set White on move. Leave force mode and set the engine to play Black.

'force':
Set the engine to play neither color ("force mode").

'go':
Leave force mode and set the engine to play the color that is on move.

Value 4 -- will not be implemented.

In main loop check if engine is required to make move, if no then wait for
user/xboard move/command.
