2.0.0 release of the Agon Console8 MOS

This is the first official release of the Agon Console8 variant of MOS. It is suitable to be installed and run on any and all Agon Console8 and Agon Light machines, and is fully compatible with either versions 1.4 RC2 or later of the Agon Quark VDP or version 2.0.0 or later of the Agon Console8 VDP software.

This software is fully functionally compatible with Agon Quark MOS version 1.4 RC2, as of 31st October 2023. It has adopted a different numbering scheme from Agon Quark MOS, hence the numbering change.

The Console8 variant of MOS contains a few additions, notably support for a PS/2 attached mouse (when running Agon Console8 VDP version 2.0.0 or later), performance enhancements for SD card access, and several new star commands. More information on this can be found on earlier release notes.

With thanks to @breakintoprogram for his fantastic work on this project, and all the other contributors to previous versions.
