Readline 8.0 has a feature that lets an application name a keymap.
This in turn makes it simpler for users to bind keys in keymaps in
their .inputrc.
This patch gives a name to the TUI SingleKey keymap, so that
additional bindings can be made there. For example:
$if gdb
set keymap SingleKey
"X": "echo hello\\n\n"
$endif
The call to rl_initialize, in tui_initialize_readline, had to be
removed so that .inputrc was not read too early. Note that Readline
explicitly documents that this call is not needed.
