QBoard GUI for XBoard, UCI, UCCI and Qianhong

[fire_varan]

I believe XBoard 4.9.1 has some difficulties to be compiled for Windows, so I decided to make my own GUI supporting XBoard protocol (and other protocols too). It is still alpha, so criticism/suggestions are welcome.

Features

* Chess, Xiangqi, Shogi, Mini Shogi and Chu Shogi game boards
* Supports WinBoard, UCI, UCCI and Qianhong protocol engines

TODO:

1. Implement drops in Shogi and MiniShogi, drops work, but only for computer, which makes game little more harder
2. UCCI protocol engines issue - so far only Binghewusi engine works fine
3. Saving/loading games in the following formats: PGN, WXF, PSN, CSA, KIF
3. Chu Shogi implementation (including Lion moves)
4. Castling and En Passant rules in Chess
5. Promote pawns to other pieces than queen in Chess

First of all, thank you for downloading and testing my application.

Sorry, I messed up, did DEBUG build instead of RELEASE, and also I did not set VCINSTALLDIR properly for windeployqt (did not use this tool before).

Now it is release build, + Visual C++ Redistributable is included within the archive.
