  #9907: call rl_initialize early when using editline on OSX

  editline rl_initialize apparently discards any mappings done before it
  is called, which makes tab revert to file completion instead of inserting
  a tab.  So now on OSX we call rl_initialize first if we are using
  readline, and then re-read the users .editrc (if any) afterward so they
  can still override our defaults.

  Patch by Ned Deily, modified by Ronald Oussoren.
