Android UCI engine update: Texel 1.07a6

Texel has finished playing in TCEC-9 two weeks ago, at the end of the rapid stage. The same development version is now available for our Android devices.

Two different sets have been ported so far: One by the author Peter Österlund and antoher one by Aprijal Pasaribu. I can confirm that Aprijal's builds are running faster. PGO may be the reason for arm7 but this time arm8 build appears to be faster too, as seen below. The tests were conducted using Chess for Android, 256MB hash, 1 minute fixed time analysis.
PO arm7: 561 Knps on Exynos 4412 4 x 1.6Ghz

AP arm7: 664 Knps on Exynos 4412 4 x 1.6Ghz

AP arm7: 1395 Knps on MTK 6752

PO arm8: 1909 Knps on MTK 6752 8 x 1.6Ghz

AP arm8: 2014 Knps on MTK 6752 8 x 1.6Ghz

  5. Mips iş another architecture from Windows CE era. It's quite obsolete today. I don't recall any Android device with MIPS cpu.
