IMO we shouldn’t do that: ‘TERMINFO_DIRS’ “belongs” to ncurses, and we
do not add it to each and every program that depends on ncurses.

I understand that not adding ‘TERMINFO_DIRS’ in uftrace can be annoying
due to <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/20255>, but so far consensus has
been to keep search path specs where they belong.

Thoughts?
