package/ncurses: drop our custom host build commands
Commit bf446513e7e7 (ncurses: fix hanging installation due to old
version of tic) introduced the build of the host tic, to be used by the
target ncurses. That commit purportedly built a static tic, but that is
(at least now) wrong: there is nothing that makes the build of tic
static.
Initially, host-ncurses was configured with --without-shared, but that
only drives whether to generate shared libs or not, it does not drive
whether to do a shared or static link of executables.
And in any case, in af23d762e51b (ncurses: enable shared library build
on the host) we explicitly stopped requesting the build of a static
library, to instead require the build of a shared library.
So, we never had a statically linked tic ever.
Furthermore, we override the _BUKLLD_CMDS, but we do not provide any
_INSTALL_CMDS. As a consequence, the full ncurses is installed, not just
tic. And since we override the _BUILD_CMDS, the libraries are not built,
so they get built during the install step.
And we do indeed need the libraries (host-gettext needs them), and not
just tic.
So, just drop our custom _BUILD_CMDS and just build the whole package
with the default settings. We keep the explicit use of --with-shared,
as this is not the standard flag (--enable-shared) and it is not obvious
what the default is.
The set of files installed before and after this change is exactly the
same, and tic still is an "ELF 64-bit LSB shared object" with a RUNPATH
that still correctly points to $(HOST_DIR)/lib
To be noted: there is no regressin in build time either, since we were
already building everything anyway.
