ncurses: avoid hardcoded assumptions about the layout of .OBJDIR

Abstract out the details of the FreeBSD build into a $TINFO_OBJDIR that
external builds can override if they orchestrate the build a bit
differently and have a different objdir layout as a result. This makes
the ncurses build a little bit more flexible without requiring weird
backflips.

ncurses: split libtinfo from libncurses

Turn libncursesw.so into a ldscript which will link automatically as
needed to libtinfow so so this change is seamless at compile time.

ncurses: Add support for terminfo database

Along with the termcap database, ncurses will now lookup for the
terminfo database, note that the terminfo database is being looked
up first and then it fallsback on the termcap one.

While here drop our custom reader for the termcap database, over the
time it is needed maintenance to be able to catchup with changes on ncurses
side.

Install the ncurses tools which are needed to deal with the terminfo
database: tic, infocmp, toe

Replace our termcap only aware tools with the ncurses counterpart:
tput, tabs, tset, clear and reset

In particular they can your the extra capabilities described in the
terminfo database, which does not exist in termcap

Note that to add a new terminfo information to the database from ports
the ports will just need to add their extra information into:
/usr/local/share/site-terminfo/<firstletteroftheterm>/<term>

ncurses: only keep the version with widechar support

Only keep the widechar version of ncurses as libncursesw.so.9

Keep the old name to avoid breaking the ABI compatibility (the non
widechar version libncurses.so.9 is not binary compatible with
libncursesw.so.9) since all ports and base are already only linking
against the widechar version we can simply remove libncurses.so.9

Since the .9 version only lived in the dev branch and never ended in a
release, it is simply removed and not added to any binary compat
package.

Add symlinks to keep build time compatibility for anyone linking against
-lncurses
