Hello,
I am taking another look at evolving implementation details also according to
the software release of the “GNU Readline library” (version 8.2 from
2022-09-26).

A corresponding difference display indicates that some functions were added.
This doesn't break the ABI. This is an API change only; no public functions
or variables were modified or removed; any application (besides bash, which
uses the new APIs) linking against readline-8.1 will link successfully
against readline-8.2.
Bash is special, since I develop it and readline together. Bash is often,
as in this case, the first to use new public APIs.
In general, a specific version of bash requires the same version of
readline that it ships with in lib/readline.
