undocumented vst_load_fonts feature

Hi,

it looks like this function can easely replace the system font with a font yet loaded in RAM.
The parameter reserved in intin(0) that must be set to zero can be set to 1
then control(10)+control(11) are set to the header address of the new font in RAM
and the call to vst_load_fonts installs the new font!

I have found this when disassembling the APL68000 interpreter that needs a new font for its special characters.

But, unfortunately, if this wirks with TOS 1.x 2.x and 3.x, it doesn't work anymore with TOS 4.x

Guillaume.
