Automatically call resize_term(0, 0) for get{ch,key,_wch}()

Hack in the name of pragmatism. This makes resizing the Windows console
work like in ncurses, allowing resizing to work for Python code
developed on *nix without changes.

Calling resize_term(0, 0) twice is harmless, so PDCurses-adapted Python
code that already has it won't be affected.
