[issue20874] Tutorial section on starting python is out of date

[R. David Murray]

New submission from R. David Murray:

http://docs.python.org/dev/tutorial/interpreter.html does not talk about the fact that completion and history are now enabled by default on systems that support readline, and instead says that the command line editing features are "usually not very sophisticated".  This is no longer true.
