Add the ZX Spectrum Next platform to the database

The ZX Spectrum Next is a retro system that was primarily created to run ZX Spectrum programs (and as of the newest version, Sinclair QL and Commodore 64 programs), on actual hardware instead of emulation.

However the ZX Spectrum Next is also an imagining of a next-gen computer that Sinclair might have released to compete with the Atari ST and Amiga if they had entered the 16-bit computer market. In that capacity, the Next is capable of also playing games that are exclusive to it and not compatible with any ZX Spectrum model or clone (or any of the other systems the Next is compatible with).

The ZX Spectrum Next has been available for eight years, and there’s currently a dedicated community of game developers creating titles and ports that are exclusive to the ZX Spectrum Next, including commercially available games. ZX Spectrum Next emulators are also being developed so that the games can be played on other systems.
