>>Does an extended stay visa for one Schengen country get round the 90 day issue in all of them?
Yes. It's a pretty standard visa, similar to the one I have for Latin America other than the work restriction, which I do not have.
The "Visados de residencia no lucrativa" is initially for 12 months, renewable twice for 24 months each and the third renewal grants you long term residence and the renewal term is 5 years.
You may not carry out any economic activity for any company which operates in Spain. However, you may work for a company which does not operate in Spain. Remote working, for example, is perfectly acceptable provided the company does not operate in Spain.
You may freely travel throughout the Schengen Zone with a temporary residence in one Schengen Country. Though all the Ts&Cs apply.
I assume, though I do not know, that there is a requirement to be in Spain. For example if I leave Chile for more than 12 months I lose my Residency, though I can renew it once in a Spanish Embassy. I would imagine Spain's arrangements to be similar.
