[3.14] gh-154139: Document that curses is not thread-safe (GH-154173) (GH-155691)

Whether curses is thread-safe depends on the library and how it was built.
The blocking and refresh methods release the GIL, so with a non-reentrant
curses, unsynchronized use from several threads can crash.

The reference to window.use() and screen.use() is omitted: they were added
in 3.16.

(cherry picked from commit 1ed6b78)
