This series drops a bunch of compatibility code that's no longer
necessary to support our target platforms and introduces support
for getting readline's CFLAGS and LIBS via pkg-config, which in
turn makes it possible to automatically enable the feature on
FreeBSD.
There are a couple of caveats:
* while most of the existing kludges are dropped, a new one had
to be introduced :( The upsides are that the new kludge is small
and straightforward, and that there's an expiration date on it
already, since a patch making it unnecessary has already been
provided for upstream readline;
* autodetection on macOS still doesn't work because of a
downstream packaging issue, but that's not any worse than the
current situation anyway.
