Change version number from 1.01 to 1.01b. Rationale: There was one si…

…gnificant bugfix in the source code that wasn't yet in a binary Github release (the bugfix was only in the Github source code). So time to create Github release 1.01b. The bug fixed was discovered by user AdminX on Talkchess May 4 2021 see https://talkchess.com/forum3/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=74027&start=160#p892001 . Basically Sargon without a book, playing Black was incorrectly replying to 1.Nf3 with the blunder 1...e5 instead of the correct 1...d5. Totally my fault, not an original Sargon bug. The project has been very stable for a couple of years, but Visual Studio wants to change something too (of course it does), platform toolset V1.41 -> v1.42. Finally, some Z80 mnemonic improvements make it into this release, eg CP A,1 is replaced by the more correct (even though it's less explicit) CP 1. The ZMAC assembler didn't care but some assemblers do.
