2034

I set up a mask util object, but this is going to require refactoring Engine before I can use it. I think I can create a second trait, AsyncEngine, which wraps Engine, allowing for both.

I think I need to switch to only returning messages one at a time, rather than trying to eagerly read. All this needs to factor into the UI as well, which is going to be a bunch of work as well.

For now, I think I can progress with the blocking version and try to get the UI ‘working’ to some extent with a stockfish backend. Thus back to the UI I guess. Logging output and text-to-stdin input next, I think.
