unnethack: disable `fortify3` to avoid startup crash

Without the change `unnethack` startup crashes as:

    (gdb) bt

which corresponds to `gcc` warning:

    ../win/curses/cursmisc.c: In function 'curses_break_str':
    ../win/curses/cursmisc.c:275:5: warning: '__builtin___strcpy_chk' writing one too many bytes into a region of a size that depends on 'strlen' [-Wstringop-overflow=]
      275 |     strcpy(substr, str);
          |     ^

I did not find a single small upstream change that fixes it. Let's
disable `fortify3` until next release.
