Allow start with active 80-column display. 

With active 80-column display there's no way to activate hires page2. Instead of directly fiddling with 80COLSTORE it seems the cleanest way to disable the 80-column display via the official firmware entry point.

The ProDOS 8 Technical Reference Manual states in chapter 5.3.1.3 - 80-Column Text Card:
-----
80-column text cards -- and other Apple IIe features -- can be turned off
using the following sequence of instructions:

 LDA #$15     ;Character that turns off video firmware
 JSR $C300   ;Print it to the video firmware
