[PATCH 04/17] Refer to terminfo database directory consistently. |

...in the "FILES" section, at any rate.
1. Favor man(7) macro `I` over font selection escape sequences.
2. Identify it explicitly as a "directory".
3. Drop glob syntax from it, unnecessary once identified as directory.
4. Consistently set it as a tagged paragraph.
5. Use default indentation amount for tagged paragraphs.
6. Use the *roff string defined to hold the terminfo database directory
specification. This fact, however, reveals that it's unnecessary to
indirect that datum through a *roff string at all. Make it
consistent with other ncurses page to enable a robotic update
subsequently.
* man/infocmp.1m:
* man/infotocap.1m:
* man/ncurses.3x:
* man/term.5:
* man/term.7:
* man/terminfo.tail:
* man/tic.1m:
* man/toe.1m:
* man/tput.1:
* man/tset.1: Do it.
Also:
* man/ncurses.3x: Fix missing paragraph break.
