base: support modern terminals (ncurses-term + xterm-ghostty alias)
Lint / hadolint (push) Successful in 8s
Lint / actionlint (push) Successful in 15s

The base only shipped ncurses-base (xterm-256color, tmux), so SSHing in from
WezTerm/Alacritty/foot/Ghostty degraded to a dumb TERM fallback. Following the
maintainer's ansible common role:

- Dockerfile.base: install ncurses-term (terminfo for wezterm, alacritty,
  foot, st, base ghostty entry, and many more).
- rootfs/.../terminfo-src/ghostty.terminfo: thin xterm-ghostty alias
  (use=ghostty) — Ghostty connects as TERM=xterm-ghostty, which no distro
  packages. Compiled into the system db with 'tic -x'; build asserts it
  resolved via infocmp.
- kitty (xterm-kitty) already covered by kitty-terminfo; iTerm2 uses
  xterm-256color (ncurses-base).
- smoke-test: assert ncurses-term emulators + xterm-ghostty alias resolve.

Validated end-to-end in a throwaway container: ncurses-term brings the
entries, the alias compiles and equals the ghostty capability set. hadolint
clean, bash -n OK. Base-affecting, rebuilds base-<hash>. No tag.
