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.

- Use gzip shell script as GZIP envornment variable becomes obsolescent
- Split of ncurses5-devel from ncurses-devel
- Now ncurses-devel also provides ncurses6-devel 
- Also ncurses5-devel requires libncurses5 (boo#1023296)
  packages which want to be build with ncurses5-devel may require
  pkgconfig(ncurses5) or pkgconfig(ncursesw5) or
  /usr/bin/ncurses5-config or /usr/bin/ncursesw5-config

- Add ncurses patch 20170128
  + minor comment-fixes to help automate links to bug-urls -TD
  + add dvtm, dvtm-256color -TD
  + add settings corresponding to xterm-keys option to tmux entry to
    reflect upcoming change to make that option "on" by default
    (patch by Nicholas Marriott).
  + uncancel Ms in tmux entry (Harry Gindi, Nicholas Marriott).
  + add dumb-emacs-ansi -TD

- Add ncurses patch 20170121
  + improve discussion of early history of tput program.
  + incorporate A_COLOR mask into COLOR_PAIR(), in case user application
    provides an out-of-range pair number (report by Elijah Stone).
  + clarify description in tput manual page regarding support for
    termcap names (prompted by FreeBSD #214709).
  + remove a restriction in tput's support for termcap names which
    omitted capabilities normally not shown in termcap translations
    (cf: 990123).
  + modify configure script for clang as used on FreeBSD, to work around
    clang's differences in exit codes vs gcc.

- Remove -L option on screen call dues API change, now we depend

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.
