UCI issues - Githubissues

1) In UCI mode SpaceDog incorrectly reports its version via the "id name" string as "1.0". All releases since v0.97.1 are affected.

2) In UCI mode when SpaceDog plays Black the eval sign appears to be inverted, i.e it reports its score in centipawns without the minus sign when losing. E.g. it loses a piece and shows a "+3.xx" eval (as translated by the GUI). A sample game:

Besides looking daft this makes adjudication by GUI impossible.
