as suspected, MariaDB cannot license as GPLv2+

ok, so what do we do:

A) follow upstream, and use bundled GPLv2 readline to link static against
B) go back to readline-v5
C) repackage debian's version of readline-gplv2 (afaik its a v5 maintained)
D) ignore all this legal crap and just link shared with readline v6
E) try to use libedit, but the spec files contain buildConflicts with it, so i'm 
guessing it's for a good reason.


debian does B)
fedora does either A) or D), but definately static linked


tbh: even though it's not right, my preference goes to D)

my mariadb latest fix is just waiting to be pushed...

please, i need comments and opinions ASAP!
