Description
`lila` doesn't support parse `wdl` in uci info output.
It takes me half a day to debug what's wrong with `Lc0` as external engine.
Can you consider supporting `Lc0` by setting `UCI_ShowWDL` to false in the script by default?

Research direction
Start by locating the script that configures UCI options for external engines and trace how default engine settings are sent to Lc0. Set UCI_ShowWDL to false by default, then verify that Lc0 no longer produces unsupported WDL information in the UCI output.
