The console's receive side, standing in for the console node until the
mesh exists, as CONSOLE-TX does for output. A data fetch (@, @+, @b)
from CONSOLE-STATUS gives -1 when a character is pending and 0 when
not; from CONSOLE-RX it gives the next character and takes it, or -1
with none pending. The characters come from a queue the test feeds.
Instruction words and literals are still fetched with v4_node_load, so
code at a register's address is never taken for the register.
