deprecate ncvisual_geom() in favor of new ncvisual_blitter_geom(), which allows caller to get the blitter used. replace the checks and calculations in ncvisual_render() with a call to ncvisual_blitter_geom(), unifying the two paths (and eliminating several bugs in the unloved ncvisual_geom()).
Move hardcursorpos into the renderstate carried
across rasterizations. This eliminates undesirable vertical
movement following pixel image emission #1400.
Eliminate NCDIRECT_OPTION_NO_READLINE (it was only introduced in
Notcurses 2.1.6). Add a new function, ncdirect_readline(). Upon
first call to this function, initialize libreadline. Destroy
libreadline in ncdirect_stop() iff we initialized it. Add
hilodirect guessing game PoC from #1325. Rename
notcurses_directmode.3 to notcurses_direct.3. Closes#1326.
Without defining a null implementation for the
USE_MULTIMEDIA=none case, we print a warning in programs
which linked against notcurses-core about not being built
with multimedia support. This warning is both (a) inaccurate
and (b) irrelevant. We can now distinguish between "no support"
(implementation != NULL) and "linked against notcurses-core"
(implementation == NULL). Move the warning to the shim.
Rather than trying to force things in via library constructors
and weak symbols and --whole-archive and pkg-config tricks, just
add new functions ncdirect_core_init() and notcurses_core_init().
libnotcurses has ncdirect_init() and notcurses_init(), which pass
through to these. apps linking against notcurses-core ought use
the _core_ variants directly. This gets exactly the linkage we
want, everywhere. Convert many PoCs to _core_ variants. #1301

I've created the new files src/compat/compat.{hc}. These
are available to all binaries by adding src to the include
directories, and src/compat/compat.c to the sources. Several
functions are implemented here which one or more target
operating systems are missing, right now all related to time.
This includes clock_nanosleep(), which is missing on OS X and
DragonFly BSD. Eliminate the other three definitions of
timespec_to_ns() and friends. Standardize on NANOSECS_IN_SEC
rather than the more opaque GIG. Progress on #1121.
