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.
* Corrected menu item neighbour calculation so it works when O_ROWMAJOR
is set and unset. This corrects item navigation which was previously
broken when O_ROWMAJOR was not set.
This resolves lib/46620.
* return NULL to indicate an error if a NULL name is passed
* fix a crash if description is NULL
Thanks to Julian Coleman for finding and fixing these.

* Fixed behaviour of the menu window handling. The library no longer
creates the subwindow or window which is correct behaviour as documented
in the ETI library documentation.
- keep the case consistent between the actual name and what's referenced.
e.g, if it's `foo', don't use '.Nm Foo' at the start of a sentence.
- remove unnecessary `.Nm foo' after the first occurrence (except for
using `.Nm ""' if there's stuff following, or for the 2nd and so on
occurrences in a SYNOPSIS
- use Sx, Ic, Li, Em, Sq, and Xr as appropriate
