Bug description:
the simulator already provides access to memory, I/O ports and the stack, however for programming with interrupts, it would also be useful to be able to easily access interrupts - so that interrupts can be easily triggered manually, or possibly be configured to occur regularly, using a configurable timeout/delay.

This would help emulating a basic timer for example, where we can configure gnusim8085 to trigger a certain interrupt every couple of milliseconds (or at a rate of x hz/khz), which in turn could be used by a corresponding interrupt handler to implement a timing routine.

Having an option to dynamically trigger/modify interrupts at runtime would also be very useful, too!
