Create terminfo database entry

[ZyX]

Can you please create and include terminfo database entry which describes all libvterm capabilities, but nothing more? My reasoning is the following:

I use libvterm for testing powerline tmux bindings (integration tests with real tmux executable). Tmux-1.9 with TERM=vt100 or any other non-256-color terminal I tried uses wrong colors. Tmux-1.9 with TERM=screen-256color and most other TERM=…-256color make libvterm emit messages like `libvterm: Unhandled CSI SGR 4233`. I have this problem fixed by using TERM=st-256color (terminfo is from suckless simple terminal), but the result looks rather strange: terminfo entry not even from ncurses package that has nothing to do with libvterm, why?

Leonerd, any input here?

My overall thought is that generally terminfo is an old outdated concept. If you want to know what capabilities your terminal has and whether it can do some rare esoteric things, just ask it. If you're trying to do generally standard stuff then they all ought to behave the same. In either case, there's no need to consult a probably out-of-date database on the wrong machine that can't talk to the actual terminal in question.
