ncurses: Modify the header to always use the ABI of ncursesw
instead of the 8-bit ncurses.

We don't provide the 8-bit ncurses library and we are "faking" it using
ncursesw.  Thus innocent package may be compiled with the 8-bit ABI
(because it does not know what we are doing and so it does not use
the "expected" preprocessor definitions to enable the wide ABI) but
linked against ncursesw, causing a potential ABI mismatch.

the required software.  If you have already completed the steps outlined in the
INSTALL file, then continue reading for examples how to convert these files into
various other formats.

In all examples, setting the parameter REV=systemd is needed to build the
systemd version of the book.
