[issue12186] readline.replace_history_item still leaks memory

[Martin Panter]

Martin Panter added the comment:

This seems like something that should be fixed in Readline, rather than Python. Judging by the rl_clear_history() documentation, it sounds like this is private data. Maybe we need a version of rl_free_undo_list() that works for old history items, or a Readline library wrapper for free_history_entry().
