Case contract

Input: {"board", "side", "wing", "king_from", "rook_from"}; rights are assumed held. Chess960 castling: the king ends on g (kingside) or c (queenside) and the rook on f or d; the kingside rook must be on the king's h-side and the queenside rook on its a-side. Every square from the leftmost to the rightmost of king start, king end, rook start and rook end must be empty apart from the castling king and rook, and no square the king stands on or passes through (start to end inclusive) may be attacked.

Why this case matters

Chess960 castling generalizes standard rules; standard-chess shortcuts break it.
