Bug#975029: transition: notcurses



first off, sorry about that. it was in the NEWS, but it really
did come at an inconvenient time, and probably wasn't the best
call. this is an API change but *not* an ABI change[0].

* 2.0.7 (2020-11-21)
  * The `horiz` union of `ncplane_options` has been discarded; the `int x`
    within has been promoted. This union brought no actual type safety, and
    was annoying for callers to deal with otherwise. Sorry for the
    inconvenience.

i've sent off a patch to the snd author; how would you feel
about me providing you with that same patch? it's quite trivial,
and fewer than a dozen lines.

i appreciate your patience and willingness to work with me as i
learn the transition process, sebastian. you've been very
helpful.

[0] the difference is in a struct's definition; while it changes
    the API, it *does not* change the ABI (it replaces a union over
    enum+int with the int) AFAICT.
