ba655fedbb Add inline Sixel graphics, INPUT stdin support, Pygments lexer to kernel
Sixel graphics: pure-Python decoder extracts ESC P...ESC \ sequences from
the output stream, renders RGBA pixels, and encodes as PNG for inline
display in the notebook. No external dependencies (no PIL, no Ghostscript).

INPUT support: when gwbasic prints "? " (INPUT prompt), the kernel uses
the Jupyter stdin protocol (raw_input) to request input from the user and
feeds the response back to the subprocess.

Pygments lexer (basic_lexer.py): GW-BASIC syntax highlighting with line
numbers, keywords, builtins, string/number literals, and comments.
Registered as a Pygments entry point and referenced in kernel language_info.

Test suite expanded from 10 to 14 tests (Sixel decode, PNG encode, inline
graphics integration, lexer tokenization).

3e8aaa298b Implement Jupyter kernel for GW-BASIC 2026
Persistent subprocess model: gwbasic reads BASIC from stdin and writes
output to stdout in piped mode (no banner, no prompts, unbuffered).
Sentinel protocol (PRINT "<<<GWDONE>>>") delimits output per cell.

Features: state persistence across cells, error detection and reporting,
tab completion for GW-BASIC keywords, %reset/%timeout/%new magic
commands, Ctrl+C forwarding, automatic process restart.

Includes setup.py for pip install, kernel.json spec, install script,
and 10-test smoke suite (all passing).
