snark13 737c974400 Add mdview markdown viewer, reorganize tests/examples and libc layout
- Split tests/ (libc feature tests) and examples/ (real apps); shared
  app.mk in repo root, was examples/example.mk
- libc/io/* split into libc/{conio,env,errno,file,mouse,string,sys,
  time,video}/ — clearer module boundaries
- New examples/mdview/: markdown viewer (Phases 1-5 + light nested
  lists). Headers (H1-H4), HR, ulist/olist/quote with nesting via
  leading spaces, fenced code blocks, inline emphasis (bold/italic/
  underscore/code), wrap/unwrap mode with soft wrap (F2), horizontal
  pan (← →) with '>' truncation indicator
- libc additions: scroll() in conio (ESTEX SCROLL), strlwr/strupr,
  gets() test
- Makefile updates across tests/ for the new shared app.mk path

/*
* _errno_set — set `errno` from an ESTEX error code (0..255 in A).
*
* Replaces the inline pattern
* ld (_errno), a
* xor a, a
* ld (_errno+1), a ; 7 bytes per error path
* with a single
* call __errno_set ; 3 bytes per error path
*
* Saves ~4 bytes at every libc error handler that converts an ESTEX
* code into the C-side `errno`. Helper itself is 7 bytes; with 10+
* error paths in our libc the size win is net-positive.
*
* ABI:
* in: A = ESTEX error code (0..255)
* out: HL = A (zero-extended); errno fully overwritten so a prior
* large value (e.g. errno = -1) can't leak its high byte.
* clobbers: HL, AF flags. Caller must not depend on HL afterwards.
*
* Defensive 16-bit store — see chat 2026-06-02: if anyone ever assigns
* errno via C (`errno = -1`), the high byte becomes 0xFF, and a partial
* 8-bit write here would leave that 0xFF in place. Always writing the
* full word keeps errno honest regardless of who set it last.
