Message:

Generate shared C++ bindings for ncurses

Presently we let the build system generate static C++ bindings, and
then we remove them. Note that we could also prevent generating
any C++ binding, since nothing in LFS/BLFS use them, but it seems to
me that generating the shared ones is closer to what is done for
other packages.
