+20210220
+ + improve tic warning when oc/op do not mention SGR 39/49 for xterm
+ compatible XT flag.
+ + revert change to lib_addch.c in waddch_literal() from 20210130, since

+
+20210213
+ + add test/back_ground.c, to exercise the wide-character background
+ functions.
+ + add a check in _nc_build_wch() in case the background character is a
+ wide-character, rather than a new part of a multibyte character.
+ + improve tracemunch's coverage of form/menu/panel libraries.
+ + improve tracemunch's checking/reporting the type for the first
+ parameter, e.g., "WINDOW*" rather than "#1".
