Add readline information for linux to FAQ
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-841
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-841
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Documentation
         Environment: Linux
            Reporter: Steve Lindsay
            Priority: Minor


It would be good to have an faq entry like the following added to the felix faq.

Q: How do I enable readline-style behaviour (for example, command history) to the Felix shell when running on Linux?

A: First, install the jline library (http://jline.sourceforge.net/ or from your distributions package manager). Add the installed jar to your classpath, then invoke the Felix shell using the jline ConsoleRunner. For example: java -cp <jline_path>jline.jar:<felix_path>/felix.jar jline.ConsoleRunner org.apache.felix.main.Main
This will allow you to use the up-arrow to retrieve previously entered commands.
