2065f4ef9e Attempt to generate segment names for cc65
This worked, sort of.  The problem is that SourceGen will revert to
hex output in certain situations, such as a broken symbolic
reference.  There happens to be one in the ZIPPY example, and it's
on a relative branch.

The goal with the segment stuff is to allow cc65 to treat the
source as relocatable code.  In that context, a relative branch to
an absolute address doesn't make any sense, so the assembler reports
a range error.

We don't currently have a mechanism that guarantees no references
are broken (and no affordance for finding them), so we can't make
this mode the default yet.

Instead, we continue to use the generic config, but generate the
correct set of lines as comments.

a88c746419 Work around cc65 single-pass behavior
The cc65 assembler runs in a single pass, which means forward
address references default to 16 bits.  For zero-page references
we have to add an explicit width disambiguator.  (This is an
unusual situation that only occurs if you have a zero-page .ORG
in the file after code that references it.)

With this change, 2014-label-dp passes, and no other regression
tests were affected.

c80be07f73 Work around Merlin 32 instruction parsing bug
The 2014-label-dp test now passes.  Prior regression tests are
unaffected.

Also, renamed an IGenerator interface to more accurately reflect
its role.

7aa3e4dbcd Show "assembling" when assembling
Merlin 32 is slow enough with a 64K data file that you have
enough time to read the text.

a8af7e8794 Improve the "common" expression formatter
To avoid confusing the assembler, expressions with a leading
parenthesis like "(foo & $ffff) + 1" are prefixed with a "0+".  This
is not necessary if the operand begins with a '#'.

da91f86043 Get 64tass expressions working
We now insert parenthesis as needed.  This can cause problems in
some situations, so we always prefix parenthetical expressions with
"0+", which looks goofy and is unnecessary for immediate operands.
But it does generate working source code.

Renamed the "simple" expression mode to "common", as it's not
particularly simple but is what you'd expect most assemblers to do.
(OTOH, life has been full of surprises.)

61914c8f79 Progress toward 64tass expression support
Gave cc65 its own expression generator, as the precedence table seems
atypical if not unique.  Configured 64tass to use the "simple"
expression mode.

Added some operations on a 32-bit constant to 2007-labels-and-symbols
to exercise the current worst-case expression (shift + AND + add).
Tweaked the Merlin expression generator to handle it.

f7e5cf2f45 Progress toward 64tass support
Most tests pass, but 2007-labels-and-symbols fails because the
expressions recognized by 64tass don't match up with either of the
other assemblers.

This is currently using a workaround for the local label syntax.
64tass uses '_' as the prefix, which is unfortunate since SourceGen
explicitly allowed underscores in labels.  (So does 64tass for that
matter, but it treats labels specially when the '_' comes first.)
We will need to rename any non-local user labels that start with '_'.
