Add an UCI level command "export_net".

This command writes the embedded net to the file `EvalFileDefaultName`.
If there is no embedded net the command does nothing.

fixes #3453

closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/3454

No functional change

 For developers the following non-standard commands might be of interest, mainly useful for debugging:

     Performs a standard benchmark using various options. The signature or standard node

   * #### d
     Display the current position, with ascii art and fen.
 
   * #### eval
     Return the evaluation of the current position.
 
+  * #### export_net
+    If the binary contains an embedded net, save it in a file (named according to the default value of EvalFile).

 ## A note on classical evaluation versus NNUE evaluation
 
 Both approaches assign a value to a position that is used in alpha-beta (PVS) search
