 1.5  27-Mar-2020  christos As described in tech-userlevel:
- Modify the writing code to only write entries in the new
format for the terminal descriptions that require it.
- Store new format entries as <name>@v3
- Store old format entries with clamped values as <name> for
backwards compatibility
- Lookup first <name>@v3 and then <name> if that is not found.
- Don't create terminfo2 anymore; old programs keep working with
clamped entries, and new programs be able to use the wide
fields with using the original db file.
 1.4  13-Mar-2020  roy terminfo: promote numeric parameters from short to int

POSIX mandates implementations must support upto a short but may exceed it.
When NetBSD terminfo was implemented, no terminfo description used over
a short, but because ncurses has supported ints for some time, some now do.

Infact, such a terminfo description was imported where colour pairs for
screen-256color went up to 65536 which exposed a bug in the existing
implementation where it set to zero. Because the number might mean
something more than a range, we need to be able to store it accurately.

This requires a version bump because whilst the API hasn't changed thanks
to C int promotion, the ABI has. Also the underlying database structure
has changed as well - we now store the numeric paramter inside a uint32_t
field rather than a uint16_t one.
Whilst this change can still read the old style database, the old one
cannot read the new one and thus we now maintain the database as
terminfo2.cdb, leaving the old library and database alone so old programs
still work fine.

libcurses, libfrom, libmenu and libpanel have also been bumped to
accomoate this change.
 1.3  03-Jun-2012  joerg Switch terminfo(3) to cdb(5).
 1.2  05-Feb-2010  roy branches: 1.2.6; 1.2.8;
Retain commented out capabilities by default.
 1.1  03-Feb-2010  roy Import my terminfo implementation.
This uses the ncurses terminal definitions.

OK: core@, jdc@

Prefer __printflike.
Use queue(3)
Replace linear lookup with hash table, reducing runtime by 60%.
Use e* from util.h.
One more strdup -> estrdup.
Maintain nalias and nterm on the fly.
Add void for ttyslot prototype.
Use memcmp in place of strncmp, since length is known to no longer than
either of the arguments.
Fix a number of memory leaks. Keep final loop of the cleanup in tic(1)
under #ifdef __VALGRIND__ though.
Add __predict_true / __predict_false definitions.
Add a special seeder for cdbw_output that gives stable results.
Hook up cdbw(3) for the tool build.
Prototype for cdbw_stable_seeder.
Provide a usable thr_once for !_REENTRANT
Switch device database to cdb(5). Rework ttyname(3) and ttyname_r(3) to
depend on new devname_r(3) as heart. Add /dev/pts magic directly to
devname(3). While it can lead to returning non-existing paths, the
behavior is more consistent that way. Drop caching layer in devname(3),
it doesn't buy anything for the common case of having access to the
database. Teach devname(3) proper fallback behavior of scanning /dev.
Create both old-style and new-style database for now in /etc/rc.d/sysdb.
Switch terminfo(3) to cdb(5).
Fix typos.
Make Alan Barrett happy and add ().
Add cdbr(3) support to tools/compat.
Bump date for previous.
Relax consistency to make it possible to match valid entries.
Prefix devname's buffer with /dev/ as ttyname is supposed to return the
full path. Reported by Dave Huang.
