#3301: Update Haskeline

-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
GHC 6.10.3 switched from readline/editline to
[http://trac.haskell.org/haskeline Haskeline] as the command-line editor
in ghci. Unfortunately, this lost a lot of the vi-mode editing
functionality, as the version of Haskeline ghci uses had very limited
support for vi mode.
This support has been improving quickly in Haskeline's trunk, thanks to
vi-mode users using the release and submitting bug reports. When the next
version of GHC is released, a new release of Haskeline with all of these
updates should be cut, and incorporated into GHC.
