ncurses 6.0 - patch 20171118

+ add a note to curs_addch.3x on portability.
+ add a note to curs_pad.3x on the origin and portability of pads.
+ improve manpage description of getattrs (report by Midolikawa H).
+ improve manpage macros (prompted by discussion in Debian #880551.
+ reviewed test-programs using KEY_RESIZE, made fixes to test/worm.c
+ add a "-d" option to picsmap for default-colors.
+ modify old terminology entry and a few other terminal emulators to
  account for xon -TD
+ correct sgr string for tmux, which used screen's "standout" code
  rather than the standard code (patch by Roman Kagan)
+ correct sgr/sgr0 strings in a few other cases reported by tic, making
  those correspond to the non-sgr settings where they differ, but
  otherwise use ECMA-48 consistently:

  of gcc which did not recognize the diagnostic "push" pragma (patch by
  Vassili Courzakis).

+       X/Open Curses assumes that the parameter passed to  <STRONG>waddch</STRONG>  contains  a
+       single  character.   As  discussed in <STRONG>curs_attr(3x)</STRONG>, that character may
+       have been more than eight bits in an SVr3 or SVr4  implementation,  but
+       in  the  X/Open Curses model, the details are not given.  The important
+       distinction between SVr4 curses and X/Open Curses is that the non-char-
+       acter information (attributes and color) was separated from the charac-
+       ter information which is packed in a <STRONG>chtype</STRONG> to pass to <STRONG>waddch</STRONG>.
+
+       In this implementation, <STRONG>chtype</STRONG> holds eight bits.   But  ncurses  allows
+       multibyte  characters  to be passed in a succession of calls to <STRONG>waddch</STRONG>.
+       The other implementations do not do  this;  a  call  to  <STRONG>waddch</STRONG>  passes
+       exactly one character which may be rendered as one or more cells on the
+       screen depending on whether it is printable.
+
+       Depending on the locale settings, ncurses will inspect the byte  passed
+       in  each  call  to <STRONG>waddch</STRONG>, and check if the latest call will continue a
+       multibyte sequence.  When a character is <EM>complete</EM>, ncurses displays the
+       character and moves to the next position in the screen.
+
+       If  the  calling  application  interrupts  the succession of bytes in a
+       multibyte character by moving the current location (e.g., using <STRONG>wmove</STRONG>),
+       ncurses discards the partially built character, starting over again.
+
+       For  portability to other implementations, do not rely upon this behav-
+       ior:
+
+       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   check if a character can be represented as a  single  byte  in  the
+           current locale before attempting call <STRONG>waddch</STRONG>, and
+
+       <STRONG>o</STRONG>   call <STRONG>wadd_wch</STRONG> for characters which cannot be handled by <STRONG>waddch</STRONG>.

+       The  <STRONG>TABSIZE</STRONG> variable is implemented in some versions of curses, but is
