Extract `libnotcurses-core` from `libnotcurses`. The former contains everything except multimedia code. The latter contains multimedia stuff (a wrapper around FFmpeg or OIIO). If built with `-DUSE_MULTIMEDIA=none`, there will not be any `libnotcurses.so` generated. `libnotcurses.so` uses library constructors/destructors to insert its implementation into the `ncvisual` stack at runtime. Users linking `-lnotcurses` will get the full implementation; users linking `-lnotcurses-core` only will get the stack less multimedia code.
The upshot of this is that someone can compile/install only `libnotcurses-core`, and a program linked against it will work just fine. This eliminates the need to install the full (large) dependency stack of the multimedia code unless necessary. This will hopefully be useful for e.g. installers etc. Closes#339.
ncplane_destroy() needs to call ncplane_reparent_family(), not
ncplane_reparent() as it was doing (closes#1291). ->absy and
->absx actually are absolute; return them directly for an O(1)
ncplane_abs_yx() (down from O(N), huzzah). Add some unit tests
related to destroying and reparenting (#1286). Add ncplane_abs_y()
and ncplane_abs_x(), document them, etc.
We've been using #ifdefs and such to check for libc
Unicode 13 support at compile time. Instead, execute
a wcwidth() using a sextant. If it comes back -1, the
libc lacks support; disable sextants. Otherwise, let
it go. This ought allow us to support sextants on BSD
as soon as it has support; it furthermore allows us to
properly disable them on Linuxes lacking such support.
Closes#1289.
