Support key bindings for all escape keys
All key names for ordinary ASCII keys as well as for escape keys (pseudo
keys) are cached in a lookup-table, keynames[], at startup. Mapping
between key names (strings) and key codes (integers) in keys_str2int and
keys_int2str) is performed through this table.
The key names used are those returned by the keyname() function of
ncurses. But to accommodate some of the names to the three-letter space
available in the status menu, four ordinary keys and the most common
escape keys have calcurse abbreviated names: ESC, TAB, RET, SPC and LFT,
HOM, PgU, INS, F1, etc.
All keys known by ncurses can be bound. Thus the check for not
recognized keys in the key configuration menu becomes superfluous. The
only keys that cannot be bound, are those escape keys not known to
ncurses, i.e. not described by the terminfo database for the terminal
type in use.
