python3: add PACKAGECONFIG[editline]

Backport PACKAGECONFIG[editline] from Scarthgap to Kirkstone
because libedit has feature parity with readline but is more
permissively licensed (BSD verses GPLv3). This patch provides
means of enabling editline in a distribution without GPLv3 and
in this case improves Python REPL keyboard support.
