This commit includes several enhancements and fixes:
1. **Engine Path Diagnostics (`main.py`):**
- I've added detailed logging to `find_stockfish_path()` for improved
diagnostics of Stockfish executable discovery.
2. **Engine Robustness (`engine_worker.py`):**
- `stop_analysis()` now returns a boolean indicating if the stop
was clean or timed out.
- If `stop_analysis()` times out, I forcibly set the engine
state to IDLE, log comprehensively, and return `False`. This
prevents me from getting stuck in an ANALYZING state.
(This logic was verified after a reported merge conflict and
confirmed to be in the correct state).
- I've added a CRITICAL log message in `_handle_engine_failure()` for
better traceability of severe engine errors.
3. **UI Feedback and Corrections (`ui/main_window.py`):**
- The status message in `MainWindow` for `EngineState.SHUTDOWN`
is now more informative ("Status: Engine offline or error. Check
config/restart.").
- I've removed a redundant status label update in `update_ui_elements`
that was overriding the detailed SHUTDOWN message.
- `MainWindow` now displays a warning dialog if an attempt to stop
analysis times out, using the status from `EngineWorker.stop_analysis()`.
These changes collectively improve the application's stability when
dealing with engine issues, enhance your feedback, and resolve
previously identified conflicts and minor UI bugs.

Pull Request Overview
This PR enhances the chess application's robustness and user feedback when dealing with engine issues. The main purpose is to improve stability, diagnostics, and user experience when the Stockfish engine encounters problems or fails to respond properly.
- Added comprehensive logging to Stockfish path discovery for better diagnostics
- Enhanced engine stop operation to return success/failure status and handle timeouts gracefully
- Improved UI feedback with more informative status messages and timeout warnings
