terminfo: drop repeat-character capability from 'xterm-new' (2)

* Drop all use cases, output is mis-generated in some situations
  (LANG and LC_CTYPE envs both unset, vi (nvi) a file with 0x0000000
  sequences in it).

  Frankly, its beyond stupid to even implement ansi sequences that were
  designed for an era of 1200 baud modems.

* Add comment describing why ansi+rep was removed.
