/*
   A FEN string defines a particular position using only the ASCII character set.

   A FEN string contains six fields. The separator between fields is a space. The fields are:

   1) Piece placement (from white's perspective). Each rank is described, starting with rank 8 and ending
      with rank 1; within each rank, the contents of each square are described from file A through file H.
      Following the Standard Algebraic Notation (SAN), each piece is identified by a single letter taken
      from the standard English names. White pieces are designated using upper-case letters ("PNBRQK")
      while Black take lowercase ("pnbrqk"). Blank squares are noted using digits 1 through 8 (the number
      of blank squares), and "/" separate ranks.

   2) Active color. "w" means white moves next, "b" means black.

   3) Castling availability. If neither side can castle, this is "-". Otherwise, this has one or more
      letters: "K" (White can castle kingside), "Q" (White can castle queenside), "k" (Black can castle
      kingside), and/or "q" (Black can castle queenside).

   4) En passant target square in algebraic notation. If there's no en passant target square, this is "-".
      If a pawn has just made a 2-square move, this is the position "behind" the pawn. This is recorded
      regardless of whether there is a pawn in position to make an en passant capture.

   5) Halfmove clock: This is the number of halfmoves since the last pawn advance or capture. This is used
      to determine if a draw can be claimed under the fifty-move rule.

   6) Fullmove number: The number of the full move. It starts at 1, and is incremented after Black's move.
