This wiki needs much more updating. ;)

Nowhere - it builds upstream busybox by default. You would have to
make buildroot build my readahead branch at:
https://github.com/brgl/busybox by modifying
package/busybox/busybox.mk to contain the following variables:

BUSYBOX_SITE = https://github.com/brgl/busybox
BUSYBOX_VERSION = readahead
BUSYBOX_SITE_METHOD = git

There are none in upstream buildroot. I prefer to start it as init,
not from scripts. Once you'll have built it, just change the init
kernel command line argument to point to /usr/sbin/readahead - it'll
start and re-exec real init.

Let me know if you'll need more help.
