ncurses: update 5.7 to version 6.2

Update to recent version of the libraries and tools, but
keep the former terminfo-db to stay compatible with ver 5.7,
which can not handle newer 32-bit terminfo definitions.

A proper update could be done by uninstalling
ncurses_terminfo_compat and omitting the deletion
of the terminfo tree in ncurses.be0

Update procedure:

  #> bee remove ncurses-5.7-0.x86_64
  #> bee install ncurses_compat-5.7-1
  #> bee install ncurses_terminfo_compat-5.7-0
  #> bee install ncurses-6.2-0.x86_64
