	readline.c 
Log Message:
SF patch #443759: Add Interface to readline's add_history

This was submitted by Moshe, but apparently he's too busy to check it
in himself.  He wrote:

    Here is a function in GNU readline called add_history, 
    which is used to manage the history list. Though Python 
    uses this function internally, it does not expose it to 
    the Python programmer. This patch adds direct interface 
    to this function with documentation. 

    This could be used by friendly modules to "seed" the 
    history with commands.
