ZX80 escape codes ​

Every escape that can be typed in ZX80 source, and the byte it stores. The spellings match the ZX81's, remapped to the ZX80's own character codes, and apply everywhere in a line. Inside a string, "" stores the quote-image code 0x81. Filters can be prefilled with ?q= and ?cat= query parameters.
