[Bug-gnubg] bearoff databases

[Joern Thyssen]

Hi all,

I'm just a about to check in in my code for bearoff databases:

* the one-sided 6pt database is now compiled into gnubg, so we know it's
  always there
* the two-sided 6 chequer database does now include cubeful equities as
  well. The cubeful equities are not used yet, but will be: for money
  games this will give perfect cubeful equities in evaluations and they can be
  used for truncation of cubeful money rollouts as well.

I've tried to make a general bearoff database API, so it should be
possible to plug in Sconyers' or other's bearoff db's.

Anyway, this means that gnubg.bd will be replaced with a new file
gnubg_ts0.bd that only contains a two-sided bearoff database.

gnubg will read

* gnubg_ts0.bd into memory
* gnubg_ts.bd and gnubg_os.bd will be used from disk

If anyone can suggest better names for the bearoff databases, please let
me know.

Gary, can you upload <URL:http://jth.freeshell.org/gnubg_ts0.bd.gz> to
alpha.gnu.org, please?

I hope this doesn't break to much... 

Jørn
