//! AI Engine — trait definition, RandomAi, and MinimaxAi.
//!
//! The `AiEngine` trait defines the interface for all AI engines.
//! Two implementations are provided:
//!   - `RandomAi`  — plays a random legal move (used for "harmless" difficulty).
//!   - `MinimaxAi` — negamax search with alpha-beta pruning, iterative deepening,
//!     transposition table, quiescence search, killer/history heuristics,
//!     null move pruning, and late move reduction.
