Use sd to control difficulty of most CECP engines
...
I was disappointed when I discovered that most engines did not respect
the depth command. But it turns out that this is a GNUChess (and
Phalanx)-specific extension. Everyone else uses sd for the same
purpose. This means that we get to provide meaningful difficulties for
these engines after all. Yay!

Review and update the suggested game durations
...
Blitz Chess is typically five minutes per player (10 minutes total). If
you want to go faster than that, you can always set a custom duration.
Most players will probably be most comfortable with a longer limit such
as 90 minutes/player.

Remove face-to-face board orientation
...
This isn't a board orientation, it's a piece orientation. It actually
silently forces the "White" board orientation.
It could be implemented separately as a checkbox, but I don't think we
want to keep this "feature."
Also, this option is broken in 3D mode. (Though as a checkbox, it could
be insensitive in 3D mode.)

Substantial, insufficient work on easiness
...
* Allow engine arguments to depend on difficulty
* Improve difficulty levels for many engines... but not much
* Stockfish and then Phalanx are now preferred over GNUChess
Unfortunately, all of these engines are too hard for our needs.
Some of these engines seem to be Windows-only; others are proprietary;
and others don't want to compile anymore. I've left these alone since
there's not much reason to remove them in case you do manage to get one
working. But they won't be getting difficulty levels.

Not necessarily the final design. All the other games have New Game in
the app menu. But I hesitate to put it there without Open and Save.
These are all very much window-specific options anyway.
Maybe it's OK to have window-specific options there, if the app is
single instance. I'm not sure anyone really knows.
And maybe we want Chess to allow multiple instances again. So not
necessarily the final design.
