rename `.displayedge` dot command if major revision of NextZXOS will be prepared

So far the new proposed name for distro is .dispedge (or maybe .edgelord).

But not yet, as renaming on minor-upgrades is problematic, lot of people would leave both in the DOT folder, so this has to wait until major "reformat card and copy files" version of distro happens.

show512: add to main Makefile after next sjasmplus release

doesn't build with v1.17.0 ... so later.

displayedge dot command does modify Next's speed, but doesn't restore it upon Quit

Before running displayedge: 3.5MHz
after running displayedge: 28MHz (in main menu)

... try to fix before 1.4 distro...

NEXLOAD2: ignores escaped quote inside quotes

ZX BASIC allows to escape quote by two-quotes inside quoted string.

displayedge is not fully converted to `\r\n` EOLs

https://github.com/ped7g/ZXSpectrumNextMisc/blob/master/displayedge/displayedge.asm#L817
will produce only \n

displayedge: rework the control scheme?

Since I had to use it few times, feels extremely confusing to me...

New idea:
space - flip between top-left and bottom-right corner editing (with blinking arrow pointing into the active corner)
cursor keys / kempston - move the corner point up/left/right/down, slow speed (+-1px per N frames)
SS+cursor keys / fire+kempston - move the corner point faster (1px per 1-2 frames?)

So by adjusting one corner the two margins would be edited at the same time, and the direction of expanding/shrinking margin would be "natural" on the controller.

check for Z80N in displayedge seems rather weak.

just rra?? .. should probably compare for precise $80 to be absolutely sure mirror a was done.
