Update optional extension module detection for AIX. ossaudiodev and spwd are
not applicable for AIX, and are no longer reported as missing. 3rd-party
packaging of ncurses (with ASIS support) conflicts with officially supported
AIX curses library, so configure AIX to use libcurses.a. However, skip
trying to build _curses_panel.

The :file:`.gitignore` file systematically keeps "rooted", with a
non-trailing slash, all the rules that are meant to apply to files in a
specific place in the repo. Previously, when the intended file to ignore
happened to be at the root of the repo, we'd most often accidentally also
ignore files and directories with the same name anywhere in the tree.
