[ocfmrykg] Morphing piece

A fairy chess piece can change among several identities, each with different movement and attacking abilities.  Changing identity is done in the place of a normal move.

The motivation was to allow an anisotropic directional piece to turn directions.

If you don't already know it, the game Essentia might interest you. It has standard chess piece movements, but a piece's ability depends on the square that it is currently on.
