The code for the Strength option has been removed from this GreKo derivative in search.cpp, and in the OnSetoption routine in main.cpp, but not from the output produced when the uci command is issued. Hence, the program exits when the GUI tries to set a value for Strength.

Igel 1.1 https://github.com/vshcherbyna/igel/releases released.

What's new:
- Remove leftovers of Strength option to allow running in ChessGUI software

Thank you for the bugfix, Volodymyr.
