f6ded7712e VE: add 't'
This is the first commit I do entirely in VE. It's a habit I'm planning
on taking as it helps a lot to find usability issues.

2d17b4e8ec Make string length-prefixed instead of null-terminated
I'm not sure why I chose null-terminated initially. Probably because
the z80asm version had null-terminated strings.

Length-prefixes strings are the traditional form of strings in Forth
and it's a bit easier to work with them with traditional forth words
when they're under this form.

I'm planning a string reform and it's standing in the way.

ed2b91411a Limit ourselves to 8-bit branching
I'm planning on going back to 8-bit branching. 16-bit br cells incur
a non-negligible penalty and, while at first 64 words (128 bytes
forward or backward) seemed a bit limiting, I now don't see why one
would ever construct such a big branch. It would be un-forthy.

Also, I looked at using BC instead of IY to hold IP and the transition
would be a lot easier with 8-bit branching.

In this commit, all I do is add overflow checks in IF. The mechanic
below doesn't change. I'll give myself some time to think it over so
that I avoid yet another back and forth.

bd38d80f9c Move Cross-compiled core from B390 to B350
and renamed it "Core words". Also, reworded the presentation.

3d908cef3a Move all parsing words to Inner core
This allows us to get rid of the (parse*) indirection.

44403c3d4c Move icore to blkfs
The way is clear for complete stage1 bootstrapping on the RC2014
target!
