Yes we do need readline unfortunately. vshReadlineCompletion() calls
rl_completion_matches() which filters strings returned by
vshReadlineParse() so that list of strings presented to user corresponds
to their input. We could reimplement the rl_* function ourselves if we
really want to be readline independent. On the other hand - readline is
everywhere, so why should we bother?
