osk: toggle-able on-screen keyboard on the window layer
A joypad-driven keyboard that costs zero permanent screen space: it lives
on the GB window layer, so SELECT just flips LCDC bit 5 (window enable) and
the terminal's background layer underneath is never disturbed.
- src/joypad.asm: read $FF00 with edge detection (wPadCur/Prev/New).
- src/osk.asm: 3x20 key grid (letters, digits, space, punctuation, plus
Enter/Backspace) built once into spare bank-1 VRAM tiles (104+) and laid
out on the $9C00 window map, docked to the bottom 3 rows. The highlighted
key is a palette swap on its window attribute byte (CGB BG palette 1 =
inverted), so moving the cursor is 1-2 attribute writes with no tile
rebuilding. SELECT toggles, d-pad moves, A types.
- KGetc's console poll loop now polls the joypad and osk_handle each
iteration; a key press returns its byte to the reader exactly like a
serial byte, so the shell is oblivious to the input source.
Verified in the emulator (via --keys): SELECT shows the keyboard, the
highlight tracks the d-pad, and typing "ls"+Enter runs the command and
lists the files; a second SELECT hides it and reclaims the full 18 rows.
Known limitation: the OSK overlays the bottom 3 terminal rows, so if the
prompt has scrolled to the very bottom the current input line can be
hidden. A follow-up can add a scroll region (terminal uses rows 0-14 while
the OSK is up). Input over serial still works unchanged.
