Video soft font data was occupying a large amount of space in the HBIOS bank. This change moves the font data to a ROM bank by default.
Thanks and credit to @b1ackmai1er who provided much of the code that originated this change.

- UNARC updated to UNARCU11 which fixes an edge case where the user number was being incorrectly changed. See #496. Thanks and credit to Lars Nelson for this.
- Unique I/O configuration for Les Bird's Graphics/Sound/Joystick Module has been removed because the module now conforms to generic MSX port conventions.
- Implement Interrupt Mode 2 (Mode 1 is still default)
- Implement interrupt driven keyboard support
- Improve UART keyboard driver to support interrupt driven flow control
- Rearranged HBIOS code to improve colocation of related code.
- Implemented macros to improve control over assembly diagnostic output.
- Improved handling of diagnostic LEDs.
- Improved application boot bank management.
- Implemented application boot for Z280 systems.
- Moved Z280_BNKSEL into proxy.
-
- If enabled by AUTOCON config setting, you can press <space> at any character device to take over the console at the boot loader prompt.
- Correction to SIOSEEK documentation in System Guide. Thanks and credit to Martin R.
- Detect CTS at startup to ensure it is asserted. If not, disable hardware flow control to avoid stalling the console at boot. Only for UART driver because this is the only place it is currently relevant.
- The build process was enhanced by Dean Jenkins to support the Raspberry Pi. Note that the Propeller firmware will not be generated by a RPi build. See Issue #358.
- Initial support for USB storage via CH375/6.
