[PATCH] Remove curses, don't require readline

["Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This patch removes checking for curses/ncurses.  It is never used.

It also allows libvirt to be compiled without readline support.  If 
readline support is not available then the only difference is that 
'virsh' will be built without it -- in other words, command line editing 
will not work in virsh.

Rich.
