  Description     : Java library for handling console input (JLine 4)

 JLine is a Java library for handling console input. It is similar to
 GNU Readline but with a focus on portability, flexibility, and
 integration with Java applications.
 .
 This is the JLine 4 series (Java 11 or later): the line reader, the
 terminal and its JNI provider. It installs next to jline3
 (libjline3-java); its native library is built from source.

- Why is this package useful? The Scala 3 REPL uses JLine 4
  (org.jline:jline-reader, jline-terminal, jline-terminal-jni 4.0.14).
  jline3 stays for its current users.
- Source: https://github.com/jline/jline3 (the repository keeps its
  JLine 3 name for the 4.x series).
- Maintenance: in the Debian Java team. I need a sponsor.
