Numerous changes to make paper tape configurations more consistent with disk configurations. This allows all devices to share the machine-wide "autoMount" configuration object, now that the PC11 has a proper device name ("PTR"), making its properties distinguishable from those for RK11 and RL11 drives (eg, "RK0", "RL0", etc). And all the tape/disk components now use "Load" functions to connect a tape or disk to a device ("Attach" is deprecated). And finally, all tape/disk components now support operations to deposit their media directly into memory -- although in this case, the names of the operations are necessarily different: "Read" for tape images, "Boot" for disk images. The difference is partly historical convention but also reflects the fact that a "Boot" operation is more limited: paper tapes were designed to be completely loaded into memory, whereas bootable disks are designed for only the first sector to be loaded and executed. Also, paper tape images are now flagged as non-auto-starting, because they often require some user action (eg, loading another tape, setting some switches, etc), whereas disk boot sectors are flagged as auto-starting (see the fStart parameter of the loadImage() interface in the RAM component).

Added getTrapStatus() so that the Debugger can display trap information whenever a trap has just occurred, updated FileDump to store 'load' and 'exec' properties in MACRO-11 listing dumps (so that the individual machine files don't have to specify hard-coded 'load' and 'exec' values themselves), and added a new SerialPort parameter (upperCase) that can be used to force all received data to upper-case

Supoprt for tape images in the Absolute Loader format has been moved to the RAM component, so that those images can be preloaded into RAM in the same way that raw bootstrap images can; the RAM component now provides Absolute Loader image parsing as a service to other components that need it (specifically, the PC11 tape reader)
