[Computer-go] Orego 7.08 released

[Peter Drake]

This version's default player (Lgrf2Player) uses the last-good-reply  
policy, and in fact an improved version described in an upcoming  
paper. We do not use the Elo-based heavy playouts, because we were  
never able to get them to run quickly enough to really offer an  
improvement.
