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 20211106
  + improve check in misc/Makefile.in for empty $PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR
  + modify wnoutrefresh to call pnoutrefresh if its parameter is a pad,
    rather than treating it as an error, and modify new_panel to permit
    its window-parameter to be a pad (report by Giorgos Xou).
  + fix a memory-leak in del_curterm (prompted by discussion with Bram
    Moolenaar, cf: 20210821).

- Add ncurses patch 20211030
  + simplify some references to WINDOWS._flags using macros.
  + add a "check" rule in Ada95 makefile, to help with test-packages.
  + build-fix for cross-compiling to MingW, conditionally add -lssp
- Correct offsets of patch ncurses-6.3.dif

- Add ncurses patch 20211026
  + corrected regex needed for older pkg-config used in Solaris 10.
  + amend configure option's auto-search to account for systems where
    none of the directories known to pkg-config exist, adapted from
    mailing-list comment (report by Milan P. Stanic).
- Port patch ncurses-6.2.dif which is now named ncurses-6.3.dif

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.
