Rework the bytecode format to use a much simplified setup: a six-bit timer with
...
the top two bits reserved for pulse and index state. This is actually smaller,
bandwidth-wise, than the old version, and may be smaller than the crunched
version.

So writing now works, but only if USB DMA is enabled. But that breaks reading.
...
I've worked round this in a simple but brute force manner and it now looks as
if reading *and* writing work, more or less. There does still seem to be the
odd bad sector when writing 1440kB disks.

Rework the output fifo to be a bit more correct about the sync signals, which

in turn allows the sequencer to lose less time --- this gets the effective
clock rate down to about 1.01us. However we still seem to lose the last sector
on 18-sector disks and there are some disk reads so something is still wrong.
