New UCI engine: Spartan

[CDaley11]

Hello everybody,

I recently published a new UCI engine called Spartan. Spartan is the "successor" to an engine I published 2 years ago called JFresh. I haven't tested this on a windows computer yet so if anybody encounters errors while trying to compile/run it on a windows please let me know.

I've tried to gauge its playing strength by putting it through the Bratko-Kopec tests and the Larry Kaufman CCR 1 Hour Test. According to results from those it should have ~2100 elo playing strength but I'm not sure if it's actually that strong.

Any comments are welcome. Thanks,
-Christian

You should also make it play Spartan Chess.

I was able to build this on windows with minor issues. Added to the issue queue in the git repo.

I just published a fix for the stdint issue. Thanks for pointing it out.
