'smm' means turn on the meta key if this terminal has one.

Explicitly set meta key off to avoid probable escape sequence output
while gnu readline library initialization.

I am still not sure about this change, there was some discussion that
the readline library would do be making a similar change and we should
back port that change.  I contacted the readline maintainer to find out
about that.

I am going to hold off until I hear from him.

Hongxu, please look at the "Bash" Git for readline library and see if you can find the changes that Chet made to back port.

Got it.

Thanks
Sau!
