Yann E. MORIN dc2a13a2aa package/libedit: switch to alternate URL for proper packaging
Upstream libedit does not have a proper homepage, and does not provide
any sort of packaging whatsoever. So far, we used Debian's wayback
machine to get a tarball of a rather oldish libedit.

As Thomas pointed out, someone has been maintaining a proper autotools
based, up-to-date package for a while.

While Debian is stuck to 2.11 (5 years old now), we bump to 3.1 as a bonus.

Remove our libedit.pc, it's now bundled with the package.

The editline library (from BSD) provides generic line editing
and history functions. It slightly resembles GNU readline.
The official homepage is at:

Jess Thrysoee maintains an autotoolified packaged, which we use
in Buildroot as it makes it much simpler than using the upstream
sources which require pmake:
