Wire NNUE eval into real search path; fix critical perf regression
Load-and-call infra: export_nnue_weights.py-produced weight files can now be loaded at runtime (nnueeval.c's NnueLoadWeights, "nnue load" command, --nnueweights CLI flag for scripted match-play), and the FC head (NnueForward) runs the real forward pass against the live accumulator. Real integration: Eval() now short-circuits to NnueForward when g_fUseNnueEval && g_fNnueWeightsLoaded, so ./typhoon can actually play on the NNUE eval -- ./eval_tune/test_vs_head.sh works unmodified to compare it against the old HCE. ReInitializeSearcherContext (root.c) gained a defensive accumulator recompute hook covering setboard's downstream effect on the next go/ponder; it only fires when both kings are validly placed, since testrecogn.c's synthetic positions don't always have one at the moment this is called. Critical fix: the NNUE accumulator maintenance added to move.c's 8 primitives (and MakeMove/UnmakeMove's king-move backup/restore) was running unconditionally, on the mistaken assumption this was cheap. It cost ~50% of engine throughput even with NNUE off (673k nps measured vs the expected 1.4-1.5M baseline). Gated all of it behind g_fUseNnueEval; classic HCE is back to ~1.52M nps, NNUE eval runs at a fair ~409k nps (expected for an unquantized float32 forward pass). This gating also exposed that testnnue.c's TestNnueAccumulator never set g_fUseNnueEval, so its own direct NnueAccumRecompute calls raced ahead of now-gated-off incremental maintenance; fixed by having the test set/restore the flag around its run. board.c: added en passant legality check to IsBoardLegal (rank vs side-to-move, origin-square occupancy) -- a real, previously-latent bug surfaced while building the NNUE test fixtures, unrelated to NNUE itself.
