[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/ncurses: Add option to install extra terminfo files.

Add an option to ncurses to install extra user-configured terminfo
files. By default, only a small number of vital terminfo files are
installed on the target. This allows a build to specify the terminfo
files it needs.
