[PATCH 16/19] INSTALL: Document API/ABI changes (to defaults) with the others.

[G. Branden Robinson]

Also try to make it really clear to lunks like me that the ncurses 6.5
(default) API/ABI is not finalized yet.  People should guess this from
the fact that they grab pre-release snapshots, but some don't.

See
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-ncurses/2023-10/msg00078.html>
et seq.
