[xqrjuuck] QR fairy chess

Fairy chess permits a very large number of possible piece types.  Instead of developing a new icon for every possibility, depict each piece with a QR code which directly encodes the piece's abilities.

A QR code is square.  So are squares on a chess board.

This is more a universal format intended for fairy chess position diagrams for machine processing rather than something directly readable by humans.  Humans should use a UI.
