libncurses5 missing in mantic/noble

[Alexander Koskovich]

This package being missing breaks several packages people currently use, and breaks compilation of the Android Open Source Project for every current release.

Google has started work on deprecating libncurses5 host usage internally (see https://groups.google.com/g/android-building/c/Sv_v2ApJZug), but that will not happen until at least Android 15 (later this year), and does not at all address the previous Android releases that are still supported and get security tags. We need this package to continue building AOSP for those previous releases.
