Is there a reason *not* to move towards that for v7.2 so that the
functions we are making optional with readline are automatic? Since we
could then ship the code, we could make it a standard vs optional
"feature" ...
My thought would be to put 'make history feaure standard using libedit'
onto the TODO list and take it from there ...
