New curses Libraries

Edit Package ncurses

As soon as a text application needs to directly control its output to
the screen (if it wants to place the cursor at location (x,y) then
write text), ncurses is used. The panel and the forms libraries are
included in this package. These new libraries support color, special
characters, and panels.

- Add ncurses patch 20200308
  + update copyright notices in test-packages.
  + modify tracemunch to guard against errors in its known_p1 table.
  + add several --with-xxx-libname options, to help with pkgsrc (prompted
    by discussion with Thomas Klausner).

- Add ncurses patch 20200301
  + modify wbkgd() and wbkgrnd() to avoid storing a null in the
    background character, because it may be used in cases where the
    corresponding 0x80 is not treated as a null (report by Marc Rechte,
    cf: 20181208).

- Add ncurses patch 20200229
  + modify CF_NCURSES_CONFIG to work around xcode's c99 "-W" option,
    which conflicts with conventional use for passing linker options.
  > fixes for building with Visual Studio C++ and msys2 (patches by
    "Maarten Anonymous"):
  + check for pcre2posix.h instead of pcre2-posix.h
  + add case in CF_SHARED_OPTS for msys2 + msvc
  + add fallback definition for STDIN_FILENO in progs.priv.h
  + modify win_driver.c to use _alloca() rather than gcc's variable
    length array feature.
  + add NCURSES_IMPEXP to ncurses wrapped-variable declarations
  + remove NCURSES_IMPEXP from class variables in c++/cursslk.h
  + remove fallback prototype for exit() from c++/etip.h.in
  + use configured check for <sys/time.h> in a couple of places
  + conditionally include winsock.h in ncurses/win32con/gettimeofday.c,
    because Visual Studio needs this for the timestruct declaration.
  + adjust syntax in a couple of files using the NCURSES_API symbol.

Is it possible to retrigger build and republish all the packages that claim to buildrequire ncurses-devel ? PCRE posix is still infecting a sizeable amount of packages and those will likely crash under some circumstances as they expect regcomp from glibc and not from pcre.
