Summary: use readline in pydoc.help if available

Initial Comment:
Interactive help (via pydoc.interact in 2.1 onwards)
doesn't use GNU readline.  This is easily amended by
using raw_input() instead of input.readline().  The
patch assumes that Helper.input is sys.stdin when
Helper.interact() is called but can be fixed trivially
if this assumption is invalid..
