src/configure.ac: suggest libeditreadline, which is GPL-2 compatible
The configure script checks if libreadline is too new to be distributable under GPL-2, and if so suggests some options to the user. This updates the error message to also suggest libeditreadline as an alternative, which is what we currently use on newer Debian distros.
