Sorry, something went wrong.
Group the module-level functions, window methods and constants by topic instead of presenting them as flat alphabetical lists, following the categories used by the ncurses manual pages. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The curses module reference presents its API as three large flat lists: 106 module-level functions, 103 window methods, and 181 constants. The flat ordering makes related calls hard to find — for example the color functions are scattered alphabetically among unrelated ones — and the key-constant table even carried an inline .. XXX this table is far too large! note.
This groups the functions, window methods and constants into topic subsections, following the categories used by the ncurses manual pages (initialization, input/output options, attributes, color, terminfo, mouse, and so on). Entries are only moved, not reworded; cross-references are unaffected since they resolve by name.
This is a documentation-only change, so it should skip the news entry.
