Summary:                    [patch] asterisk command history loads as unusable
garbage
Description: 
When using asterisk interactively with command interface a history file is
created (~/.asterisk_history). Lines written to the history file are
white-space encoded (in ast_el_write_history:history:case
H_SAVE:history_save:strvis).

But when the history file is loaded it reverse (strunvis) is not
performed.  Therefore the history becomes unusable garbage.

Add ability to use system libedit and update bundled libedit.

The version of libedit that is bundled with asterisk is old and has some
bugs.
This patch updates the bundled version of libedit within asterisk, and
also
updates asterisk to use the system libedit instead if one is available
(and
pkg-config is available).  This review integrates several patches from
other
users specifically kkm and tzafrir.
