1.0.1

• Fixed piece selectors not closing after premoves.
• Premoves can now be cancelled by selecting another square.
• MarkerTheme.corners() - piece marker that draws triangles in the corners of the square.
• BoardController.promotionBehaviour - this allows different behaviours to be specified: always show the selector (default), always auto select the best piece, or auto select only for premoves.
