[ruby-core:105481] [Ruby master Bug#17629] macOS, readline compiled with libedit: adding entries to history doesn't work unless Readline.readline is called before populating it

Issue #17629 has been updated by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada).

Backport changed from 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN to 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN, 3.0: UNKNOWN

The auto close didn窶冲 seem to work somehow.

**Description**

If Ruby's readline extension is linked with libedit library and readline history is populated before `Readline.readline` method is called then items are not available via history navigation mechanism (`up/down` arrows).

**How to reproduce**

**bug.rb** (also attached to this issue)
``` ruby
require 'readline'

# calling below code before populating history will make it work
Readline.readline('press enter to continue', false) if ENV['WORKAROUND'] == '1'

Readline::HISTORY << 'Line1'
puts "History: #{Readline::HISTORY.to_a}"
Readline.readline('> ', true)
```

```
$ ~/opt/ruby/bin/ruby -v bug.rb
ruby 3.1.0dev (2021-02-13T02:51:33Z master 813fe4c256) [arm64-darwin20]
History: ["Line1"]
> # pressing up arrow doesn't show entries from history

$ WORKAROUND=1 ~/opt/ruby/bin/ruby -v bug.rb
ruby 3.1.0dev (2021-02-13T02:51:33Z master 813fe4c256) [arm64-darwin20]
press enter to continue
History: ["Line1"]
> Line1 # up arrow was pressed here and entry from history was shown up
```

Bug affects for example `pry` gem (history doesn't work).

**My setup**

```
macOS 11.2.1 Big Sur
architecture: arm64 (apple M1 processor)
ruby -v: ruby 3.1.0dev (2021-02-13T02:51:33Z master 813fe4c256) [arm64-darwin20]

readline extension linkage:
otool -L /Users/radarek/opt/ruby/lib/ruby/3.1.0/arm64-darwin20/readline.bundle
/Users/radarek/opt/ruby/lib/ruby/3.1.0/arm64-darwin20/readline.bundle:
	/usr/lib/libedit.3.dylib (compatibility version 2.0.0, current version 3.0.0)
	/usr/lib/libncurses.5.4.dylib (compatibility version 5.4.0, current version 5.4.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1292.60.1)
```
