件名: Bishop + Knight Database Solved

I solved B+N vs. K today. If the database is solved correctly, it mirrors the 8x8 domain in difficulty, without a longer win. Black to move can lose in 64 plies, requiring 32 moves for both sides.

I will verify the database for correctness by probing the entire set and making sure all of the wins in "N" lead to positions that lose in "N-1" for the other side. Any break in the chain means there are errors lurking. If everything resolves, I think I did it properly.
