pinentry-curses and dumb terminals

[Ingo Krabbe]

Hey,

this is just a first idea to change pinentry-curses for dumb terminals:

    added \n for the dialog default sequence
    
    I use very plain dumb terminals from plan9 to connect to my servers and I still want to use gpg with pinentry to unlock my keys.
    
    This is just a first quick patch to (re) enable the Enter key to finish the dialog, as my terminal posts \n not \r for an enter key.
    
    Actually that is no terminal but a plain text connection over the network, which is much less interpreted and much simpler than using full tty emulations.
    
    Maybe I will replace the dialog with a plain no-echo dialog, when the terminal is "dumb"
