[PATCH] ncurses: change GitHub mirror

[Florin Diaconescu]

Change from github.com/mirror/ncurses to
github.com/ThomasDickey/ncurses-snapshots (which is linked in the
ncurses FAQ http://invisible-island.net/ncurses/ncurses.faq.html)

This is updated at least weekly, compared to mirror/ncurses, which was
last updated on March 12th.

This cannot be bundled together with the SRC_URI change without
explanation. Please split out into a separate patch, if it is even
necessary.

This was done in a similar way to this commit, when the change was made from Debian packaging to GitHub's mirror:

https://git.yoctoproject.org/p oky/commit/meta/recipes-core/n curses?id=dfaabf971b02e33870f9 f927e9b1356e05e74a17 ( https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/meta/recipes-core/ncurses?id=dfaabf971b02e33870f9f927e9b1356e05e74a17 )
If I only change the SRC_URI, then it won't find the original 79b9071f2be20a24c7be031655a5638f6032f29f revision.

1003914e200fd622a27237abca155ce6bf2e6030 is the commit hash of the 6.4 release tag:
https://github.com/ThomasDicke y/ncurses-snapshots/releases/ tag/v6_4 ( https://github.com/ThomasDickey/ncurses-snapshots/releases/tag/v6_4 )

Thanks, this should go into the commit message. You also need to find
out why the license checksum doesn't match and explain that too.
