release: 2.3.1

Patch release: fixes the menu top-message rendering collision (a long
top{} description now forces vertical space and the menu is drawn below
it). Version bumped across ccfe.pl, debian/changelog, the rpm spec, the
Alpine APKBUILD, the man-page .TH lines and the README.

+  * Fix a menu rendering bug: a long top{} description no longer collides with
+    the menu. The top-message area is now sized to the wrapped message height
+    (word-wrapped to the screen width) and the menu is drawn below it, instead
+    of the menu overdrawing the last line(s) of the description. The mouse
+    click-to-item mapping was updated to match the dynamic top area.
