Input-scanner vector table: 4 words indexed by the options-screen device choice (0-3). OptionsScreen ($AA5A) patches the chosen word into the CALL operand at $874D, so KeyboardScanner's first CALL goes to the device's scanner: 41293 Kempston (port 31), 34640 AGF-Protek (cursor-joystick keys 5/6/7/8/0 = the keyboard default), 41320 Sinclair (port $EFFE), 44041 redefinable Keyboard.
