5f472b60cf ORG rework, part 3
Split ".org" into ".arstart" and ".arend" (address range start/end).
Address range ends are now shown in the code list view, and the
pseudo-op can be edited in app settings.  Address range starts are
now shown after notes and long comments, rather than before, which
brings the on-screen display in sync with generated code.

Reworked the address range editor UI to include the new features.
The implementation is fully broken.

More changes to the AddressMap API, putting the resolved region length
into a separate ActualLength field.  Added FindRegion().  Renamed
some things.

Code generation changed slightly: the blank line before a region-end
line now comes after it, and ACME's "} ;!pseudopc" is now just "}".
This required minor updates to some of the regression test results.

8db554c1cd Fix 64tass output for non-loadable files
64tass wants to place its output into a 64KB region of memory,
starting at the address "*" is set to, and continuing without
wrapping around the end of the bank.  Some files aren't meant to be
handled that way, so we need to generate the output differently.

If the file's output fits nicely, it's considered "loadable", and
is generated in the usual way.  If it doesn't, it's treated as
"streamable", and the initial "* = addr" directive is omitted
(leaving "*" at zero), and we go straight to ".logical" directives.

65816 code with an initial address outside bank 0 is treated as
"streamable" whether or not the contents fit nicely in the designated
64K area.  This caused a minor change to a few of the 65816 tests.

A new test, 20240-large-overlay, exercises "streamable" by creating
a file with eight overlapping 8KB segments that load at $8000.
While the file as a whole fits in 64KB, it wouldn't if loaded at
the desired start address.

Also, updated the regression test harness to report assembler
failure independently of overall test failure.  This makes it easier
to confirm that (say) ACME v0.96.4 still works with the code we
generate, even though it doesn't match the expected output (which
was generated for v0.97).

(problem was raised in issue #98)

99cd0d3ac1 Improve handling of C64 PRG header
C64 PRG files are pretty common.  Their salient feature is that they
start with a 16-bit value that is used as the load address.  The
value is commonly generated by the assembler itself, rather than
explicitly added to the source file.

Not all assemblers know what a PRG file is, and some of them handle
it in ways that are difficult to guarantee in SourceGen.  ACME adds
the 16-bit header when the output file name ends in ".prg", cc65
uses a modified config file, 64tass uses a different command-line
option, and Merlin 32 has no idea what they are.

This change adds PRG file detection and handling to the 64tass code
generator.  Doing so required making a few changes to the gen/asm
interfaces, because we now need to have the generator pass additional
flags to the assembler, and sometimes we need code generation to
start somewhere other than offset zero.  Overall the changes were
pretty minor.

The 20042-address-changes test needed a 6502-only variant.  A new test
(20040-address-changes) has been added and given a PRG header.  As
part of this change the 65816 variant was changed to use addresses
in bank 2, which uncovered a code generation bug that this change
also fixes.

The 64tass --long-address flag doesn't appear to be necessary for
files <= 65536 bytes long, so we no longer emit it for those.

225ab9e132 Regression test rework, part 2
Renamed the remaining tests.  Only edits were to the project files
that referenced .sym65/.cs.
