Use TT memory functions to allocate memory for the NNUE weights. This
should provide a small speed-up on systems where large pages are not
automatically used, including Windows and some Linux distributions.
Further, since we now have a wrapper for std::aligned_alloc(), we can
simplify the TT memory management a bit:
- We no longer need to store separate pointers to the hash table and
its underlying memory allocation.
- We also get to merge the Linux-specific and default implementations
of aligned_ttmem_alloc().
Finally, we'll enable the VirtualAlloc code path with large page
support also for Win32.

RootInTB was an incorrectly shared global, probably leading to wrong scoreing
Minor:
setting TB global state from input by all threads (all threads write same values)
setting Limits global state by all threads (idem)
thread counting for finalization
CI can be enabled once races are fixed in the learner, manually goes like:
```
make clean && make -j2 ARCH=x86-64-modern sanitize=thread optimize=no debug=yes build
../tests/instrumented_learn.sh --sanitizer-thread
```
Needs some review.
This PR sets the "comp" variable simply to "clang",
which seems to be more consistent and allows a small simplification.
The PR also moves the section that sets "profile_make" and "profile_use" to after the NDK section,
which ensures that these variables are now set correctly for NDK/clang.

No functional change
NNUE appears to provide a more stable eval than the classic eval,
so the time use dependencies on bestMoveChanges, fallingEval,
etc may need to change to make the best use of available time.
This change doubles the effect of totBestMoveChanges when giving
more time because the choice of best move is unstable.

No need to initialize StatScore at rootNode. Current Logic is redundant because at subsequent levels the grandchildren statScore is initialized to zero.

Without this, restoring of the options (multi_think.cpp:117) can't work.
