Virgil Dupras 440ea43a88 z80a: make mnemonic names more uniform across assemblers
Initially, I used the same letters as those used in the z80 ref
docs, but it makes the different assemblers harder to use than they
should. Having consistent "argtype" rules across assemblers should
help.

BIN( is the addr at which the compiled binary will live. It is
often 0.
ORG is H@ offset at which we begin spitting binary. Used to
compute PC. To have a proper PC, call "H@ ORG !" at the
beginning of your assembly process. PC is H@ - ORG + BIN(.
Labels are a convenient way of managing relative jump
calculations. Backward labels are easy. It is only a matter or
recording "HERE" and do subtractions. Forward labels record the
place where we should write the offset, and then when we get to
that point later on, the label records the offset there.
To avoid using dict memory in compilation targets, we
pre-declare label variables here, which means we have a limited
number of it. For now, 4 ought to be enough. (cont.)
