[issue42681] mistake in curses documentation

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Good catch! And it is not only documentation issue now. Since color numbers and pair numbers use different range checks, this prevents using this function with pair numbers larger that COLORS (should be accepted up to COLOR_PAIRS-1).

Seems there is also other bug which prevents using pair number 0 (constant white on black).
