The invention claimed is: 1. A vehicle trim assembly, comprising a trim and a display device having a display screen with a first display zone and a second display zone, the display device being movable relative to the trim between a first stable position, in which the first display zone is visible and the second display zone is hidden by the trim, and a second stable position, in which the first display zone and the second display zone are both visible, wherein the second stable position is offset relative to the first stable position along a first direction perpendicular to the display screen in the first stable position, the first direction being a direction toward which the display screen is facing. 2. The vehicle trim assembly according to claim 1 , wherein, in the first stable position, the display screen is flush with a visible surface of the trim, and in the second stable position, the display screen protrudes relative to the visible surface. 3. The vehicle trim assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the visible surface comprises two regions situated on either side of the display screen. 4. The vehicle trim assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the second stable position is furthermore offset relative to the first stable position along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. 5. The vehicle trim assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the trim comprises a housing, the display device being received in the housing in the first stable position, and situated outside the housing in the second stable position. 6. The vehicle trim assembly according to claim 5 , wherein the housing has an opening, the first display zone coinciding with the opening and being visible through the opening when the display device is in the first stable position. 7. The vehicle trim assembly according to claim 6 , wherein the opening has dimensions smaller than those of the display screen, the display device traversing the opening to go from the first stable position to the second stable position. 8. The vehicle trim assembly according to claim 6 , wherein the display device is mounted on the trim to move from the first stable position toward the second stable position by pivoting such that the display screen is inclined relative to the opening, passing through the opening, then pivoting to straighten the display screen at least partially. 9. The vehicle trim assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the trim comprises an immobile concealing part hiding the second display zone in the first stable position of the display device, the display device moving between the first stable position and the second stable position so as to bypass said concealing part. 10. The vehicle trim assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the trim is a dashboard. 11. A vehicle comprising a vehicle trim assembly according to claim 1 .
