Improved device I/O under DOS 3.3

Browse Source 
Certain scenarios (e.g. not running any Applesoft program at all since booting DOS 3.3) can make DOS 3.3 consider cc65 device input (e.g. getchar()) that reads a CR interpreting the command in the keyboard buffer. Setting the hibyte of the Applesoft currently executed line number to some value <> $FF (beside setting the input prompt to some value <> ']') makes DOS 3.3 understand that we're not in intermediate mode and that therefore I/O not preceded with ctrl-d mustn't be fiddled with (see DOS 3.3 routine at $A65E).
