feat(emu): ProDOS clock card (ThunderClock / No-Slot Clock) #106

Description

@relmer

Gap

No clock device exists (not even a display-name placeholder). ProDOS reads a clock card at boot to date/time-stamp files; without one, saved files get no timestamp. A ThunderClock-style slot card (or a No-Slot Clock ROM shim) supplying the ProDOS-recognized clock firmware would populate timestamps from the host clock.

Scope

  • Clock device + ProDOS clock firmware entry (the routine ProDOS patches into its global page).
  • Host-time source feeding the ProDOS date/time format.
  • ComponentRegistry factory; machine-JSON wiring (ThunderClock as a slot card; No-Slot Clock as a ROM-socket shim).
  • Validate: ProDOS date-stamps a newly saved file.
