bpo-44172: Keep reference to original window in curses subwindow objects (GH-26226)
The X/Open curses specification[0] and ncurses documentation[1] both state that subwindows must be deleted before the main window. Deleting the windows in the wrong order causes a double-free with NetBSD's curses implementation. To fix this, keep track of the original window object in the subwindow object, and keep a reference to the original for the lifetime of the subwindow.
