Newt has widespread availability and provides a rather simple API as can be
seen by the size of this patch.

The work needed to support it will benefit other frontends too.

In this initial patch it just checks if the output is a tty, if not it falls
back to the previous behaviour, also if newt-devel/libnewt-dev is not installed
the previous behaviour is maintaned.

Pressing enter on a symbol will annotate it, ESC in the annotation window will
return to the report symbol list.
For those not so curious as to apply and try it out, here is a
screenshot of it in action:

Looks really useful!
