[slang-users] Memory leak in SLtt_get_terminfo

[Miroslav Lichvar]

Hi,

a memory leak occurs when SLtt_get_terminfo function is called
repeatedly as data allocated in _pSLtt_tigetent are lost.

Attached is a patch that deletes the old entry when a new entry is
requested, that should at least keep the size of the leak constant.
