[issue38312] curses: add `set_tabsize` and `set_escdelay`

[Anthony Sottile]

New submission from Anthony Sottile :

https://linux.die.net/man/3/set_escdelay
https://linux.die.net/man/3/set_tabsize

I'd like to help with this, but I don't even know where to start with 
argumentclinic -- any points would be greatly appreciated

presumably I should also add getters for these as well to retrieve the global 
variable from the curses side?

Are you asking about argumentclinic in general or something specific to this 
bug? If it's something specific feel free to ignore the following:

You can find a basic tutorial on argumentclinic here 
https://docs.python.org/3/howto/clinic.html#basic-concepts-and-usage

Essentially, you'll be adding something along these lines into _cursesmodule.c

/*[clinic input]
_curses.set_escdelay
size: int
bla bla description for size.
/

One line description.

Extended description. Spanning over
multiple lines.
[clinic start generated code]*/

after which you can run `python3 Tools/clinic/clinic.py _cursesmodule.c` which 
will update the file and place the stub for the method in there.

Serhiy Storchaka  added the comment:

There are also ncurses functions get_tabsize() and get_escdelay(). In other 
implementations they can be modeled by returning the TABSIZE and ESCDELAY 
global variables.
