virendra thakur fa23359034 ncurses: Fix CVE-2023-29491
memory corruption when processing malformed terminfo data entries
loaded by setuid/setgid programs

CVE-2023-29491.patch change the --disable-root-environ configure option
behavior.
set --disable-root-environ in configuration options.

--disable-root-environ option with a few additional changes
to the code allows us to mitigate CVE-2023-29491 and avoid
other issues that involve the possibility of malicious use of
environment variables through setuid applications, and, therefore,
it was the fix chosen in order to resolve this vulnerability.

QEMU Emulation Targets
======================

To simplify development, the build system supports building images to
work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures
are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants:

  * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64)
  * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64)
  * PowerPC (qemuppc only)
  * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64)

Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual.
The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given
in brackets.
