[issue13501] Make libedit support more generic; port readline / libedit to FreeBSD

Hi,

Yes this bug report is still valid. I just tried compiling Python 3.7.1 on linux with libedit installed (https://thrysoee.dk/editline/) but not libreadline, and indeed the configure script fails to detect I have it installed and falls back on the python readline emulation.

Note: I am using Linux, not Mac OS.

Cheers,
Romain
