Handle cpython builds with `libedit` for `readline`

Since `uv`'s cpython distributions are built this way `pdbp`'s tab
completion was breaking (as was vi-mode). This adds a new
`.devx._enable_readline_feats()` import hook which checks for the
appropriate library and applies settings accordingly.

Handle `readline` when compiled with `libedit` to avoid breaking
tab completion in `pdbp` (and its dep `tabcompleter`)
particularly since `uv` cpython distis are compiled this way..
