[issue18459] readline: libedit support on non-apple platforms

[Ronald Oussoren]

New submission from Ronald Oussoren:

Modules/readline.c contains some code that improves interop with the readline 
emulation in libedit. That interop code is currently guarded by '#ifdef 
__APPLE__' preprocessor tests.

This should be replaced by '#if HAVE_LIBEDIT' to make it possible to use the 
same interop code on other platforms with libedit (such as BSD systems). 

A patch should have two parts:

1) Detect in either configure or setup.py if libedit's readline emulation
   will/should be used.

2) Change the __APPLE__ guards by HAVE_LIBEDIT guards.
