Android UCI engine update: Cichess 1.8.20171201.ACH

Cichess is a Stockfish derivative i'm not interested to test but i respect the dedicated fans of it, so i keep sharing wherever i can, no matter how quickly (...how lately).

Below build is for collectors only, there's already a more recent release version that i'll soon share here.

Android UCI engine update: armFish 2017.11.23

armFish builds are made by Lyudmil Antonov for arm8 64-bit devices only, using direct cpu instructions via assembly language. This method is the most native but a little bit unhuman too. One would only bear this to obtain the fastest build.

I could not verify whether below build is made by Lyudmil too like previous ones, given that it was posted in another forum, not from Lyudmil's repository. By the way, it's hard to guess someone else would take the same difficult challenge to deal with the assembly language.

I still assume it's an LA build.
