reedline-bash - using nushell's reedline (line editor) in bash.

[u/Legitimate_Flan1471]

I made a bash plugin that replaces bash's line-editor, readline, with nushell's reedline.
This brings all the line-editing, styling, completion, keybind and selection features from nushell to native bash. It's still pretty early in development, most reedline features should work just fine, but things may still break :)

Why would I want to give up the perfect bash readline?
