Watford DDFS in DD mode #114

It seems to work OK for single density stuff, but I've never seen any DDFS images to test it with.

https://stardot.org.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=19792 links to a Master-compatible DDFS ROM, which seems to work.

Make some DD disks, get some images of them, and check it works!

In case it's useful, here is a basic double-density WDFS image. The *CAT output should be:

             (02)   Double density
Drive 0             Option 0 (off)
Directory :0.$      Library :0.$
Work file $.
