Terminal addition to Terminfo Database

Hello,

I am IFo!

I would like to propose Termite's inclusion in the Terminfo Database.
Termite is a popular keyboard centric VTE based terminal.

It has been brought to my attention that termite is already present in the Terminfo Database but as 'termite'. Termite presents itself as xterm-termite and currently we have to manually add Termite's terminfo to the Terminfo Database on every server we ssh to using it.

I have checked the two from the database using infocmp -1 and diff and there are few slight differences between the one that Termite presents (https://github.com/thestinger/termite/blob/master/termite.terminfo) and the one already in the database, so I am not sure if my proposition would be suited as a file rename and would probably require a terminfo addition and maybe removal of the other.

Let me know if there are any problems with the terminfo posted above preventing it from inclusion in the database.

Best Regards,
IFo Hancroft
