Custom Chess Tokenizer for the Chess Challenge.

Sub-word chess tokenizer that decomposes moves into components.
Instead of treating each move as a single token (requiring ~1500 tokens),
this tokenizer breaks moves into:
- Side: [W], [B]
- Piece: [P], [N], [B], [R], [Q], [K]
- Source square: [a1] through [h8]
- Destination square: [a1] through [h8]
- Optional suffixes: [x] (capture), [+] (check), [#] (checkmate),
[O-O], [O-O-O], [=Q], [=R], [=B], [=N]
Total vocabulary: ~90 tokens (vs ~1500 for whole-move tokenizer)
Trade-off: Each move becomes 4-6 tokens instead of 1, but:
- Saves ~100-200K embedding parameters
- Model learns piece/square patterns independently
- Zero OOV - can represent any legal move

"WPe2e4" -> ["[W]", "[P]", "[e2]", "[e4]"]
