engine problems

[LocutusOfPenguin]

The 8 provided engines dont support ALL uci features:

"searchmoves" not supported:

• [x] arasan see: https://github.com/jdart1/arasan-chess/issues/9
• [x] cinnamon see: https://github.com/gekomad/Cinnamon/issues/6
• [ ] rodent III see: https://github.com/nescitus/Rodent_III/issues/62
• [x] zurichess - email send (its not at github)

"ponder" not supported (SERIOUS problem):

• [x] rodent III see: https://github.com/nescitus/Rodent_III/issues/54

even WyldChess is not a standard engine (right now!), mk-chan was so kind to fix the same problems on his engine. see here: https://github.com/Mk-Chan/WyldChess/issues/45

New problem:

Rodent III needs std++14 which is not supported in Jessie (due to old gcc4.9) CrossCompile & static linkage werent successful.

Solution: forced users to update to "stretch" by providing a new image.

Cinnamon problem still not done

Solution: REMOVE this engine completely now...I lost my patience to wait any longer ;-)

New problem:

Rodent III stops the search when in ponder mode (=infinite search) and a book move can be found. see: https://github.com/nescitus/Rodent_III/issues/68

Cinnamon v2.1 now also support it. => Reconsider to put it back on engines list.
