I have implemented some undocumented quirks and glitches of the Atari ST's floppy disk controller in #zest.

It now fully supports the Union demo's copy protection. Now one can run the internal copy program and copy the demo to another floppy image file! 😅

A screenshot of the Union demo's copy program running in zeST. It is reading the source floppy disk.
