[Buildroot] [PATCH] procps-ng: fix/patch wrong ncursesw headers assumption

[Gustavo Zacarias]

The configure script/code assumes ncursesw headers live in
/usr/include/ncursesw.
That's a distribution-ism where they want to have both versions for
ABI/API compatibility, but not the case for embedded where that's not a
concern.
Hence kill the hard-coding and use pkg-config to find this out instead
of the half-made effort about it.
Fixes:

+On a pure build/system without legacy ncurses that may not be true.
