putp in non-screen app

[Charles Wilson]

With --enable-sp-funcs, it appears that putp can't be used in non-screen
apps anymore (such as tput.exe).

This is because, when NCURSES_SP_FUNCS, putp is;

NCURSES_EXPORT(int)
putp(const char *string)
{
    return NCURSES_SP_NAME(putp) (CURRENT_SCREEN, string);
}

So, to use putp, you need to call initscr() (and possibly various other
setup functions) when NCURSES_SP_FUNCS.  However, the man page for putp
only says you need to call setupterm().

Is this change in the behavior/requirements of putp intended (when
--enable-sp-funcs), or is this a bug?  If it is intended, then tput
needs the following change (or something similar):

        return exit_code(STRING, 0);
     }
     return exit_code(STRING, 1);
