Update linenoise accessory files
The core linenoise code was being backported, but not the README or example. It's less confusing for users if everything matches across directories. Fix inspired by @thrig Closes #1872

So what usually happens is either:

* Smaller programs not using a configure script not supporting line editing at all (A problem we had with Redis-cli for instance).
The result is a pollution of binaries without line editing support.

Since it's so young I guess there are a few bugs, or the lib may not compile or work with some operating system, but it's a matter of a few weeks and eventually we'll get it right, and there will be no excuses for not shipping command line tools without built-in line editing support.
