PatR 4c93e1fa21 more #H8609 - tty status condition rendering
The earlier fix removed a valid optimization which happened to be
implemented incorrectly.  Put that back.  It also left an invalid
optimization when applied to conditions.  Remove that one.

I don't think either of these explains truncating 'y' off of "Hungry"
which was shown in one of the reports.

This fixes36.3 file is here to capture information about updates in the 3.6.x
lineage following the release of 3.6.2 in May 2019. Please note, however,
that another 3.6.x release is not anticipated, and most developer
focus will shift to the next major release.
General Fixes and Modified Features
-----------------------------------
when place_object() puts a non-boulder on the map at a spot which contains
other objects, put it under all boulders in the pile rather than just
under the top one; previously, map wasn't showing a boulder there if
the top one got moved by means other than pushing
when examining the map with '/' or ';', picking a symbol which is used for
more than 4 things yielded a sentence lacking its terminating period
billing and payment issue as a result of glob coalescing
glob pricing did not consider weight properly
glob shop interaction improved to handle more of the expected scenarios
Fixes to Post-3.6.2 Problems that Were Exposed Via git Repository
------------------------------------------------------------------
Platform- and/or Interface-Specific Fixes or Features
-----------------------------------------------------
curses: very tall menus tried to use selector characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9,
but 0-9 should be reserved for counts and if the display was tall
enough for more than 62 entries, arbitrary ASCII punctuation got used
curses: when all available lines in the message window are in use,
autodescribe feedback for 'pick a position with cursor' overwrote
the last line (usually the 'pick a position' prompt/hint), sometimes
leaving part of longer underlying line's text visible
curses: if message window is only one line, cancelling some prompts with ESC
left the prompts visible on the message line instead of erasing them
curses: support EDIT_GETLIN (but like with tty, it's disabled by default) to
pre-load an earlier response as the default answer for some prompts
tty: re-do one optimization used when status conditions have all been removed
and remove another that tried to check whether condition text to be
displayed next was the same as the existing value; sometimes new
status condition wouldn't be shown unless a screen redraw was forced
Windows: some startup error messages were not being delivered successfully
