5b155a5c15 tools: use BASIC's new while loop
Also, increase STDIO_BUFSIZE to 0x40 so that those while loops work.

fb93fcd6e6 recipes/rc2014/eeprom: add usr.asm
A little life saver if your target shell doesn't have a proper at28w.

019d05f64c Make the shell a userspace app
That's my mega-commit you've all been waiting for.

The code for the shell share more routines with userspace apps than with kernel
units, because, well, its behavior is that of a userspace app, not a device
driver.

This created a weird situation with libraries and jump tables. Some routine
belonging to the `kernel/` directory felt weird there.

And then comes `apps/basic`, which will likely share even more code with the
shell. I was seeing myself creating huge jump tables to reuse code from the
shell. It didn't feel right.

Moreover, we'll probably want basic-like apps to optionnally replace the shell.

So here I am with this huge change in the project structure. I didn't test all
recipes on hardware yet, I will do later. I might have broken some...

But now, the structure feels better and the line between what belongs to
`kernel` and what belongs to `apps` feels clearer.

7cf3ed38da Extract str.asm from core.asm and make core included by userspace
Most of register fiddling routines (which is now the only thing contained
in care.asm) are used by almost all userspace apps, often in inner loops.

That makes the penalty of using jump tables for those a bit too high.
Moreover, it burdens jump tables needlessly.

Because this unit is very small (now that string routines are out), it makes
sense to always include it in binaries.

7274dccbe7 Move ASCII consts to ascii.h
And made them shorter in name. The new ascii.h file allow reuse in userspace
code.

2a55bfd375 stdio: remove a layer of indirection in GetC/PutC
We use zasm's ability to use labels in .equ directive.

We didn't do it before because for a while, we were in between scas
and zasm (scas was used in automated tests) so we needed to use the
lowest common denominator: zasm doesn't have macros and scas can't
use labels in .equ directives.

This forced us to add this layer of indirection. But now that we are
completely cut from scas' dependency, we can use this nice zasm's
ability.

b745f49186 Rename blockdev's API routines to GetB/PutB
The goal is to avoid mixing those routines with "character devices"
(acia, vpd, kbd) which aren't block devices and have routines that
have different expectations.

This is a first step to fixing #64.

c613f7b0ee recipes/rc2014/eeprom: fix broken a28w args passing
That's why the command seemed slow! It's much faster than I thought.
