Adjust configure's handling of libedit to not look for a history.h file.

Per Bob Friesenhahn's report, this file is not supplied by some versions
of libedit, and even when it is supplied it seems to be just a link to
readline.h, so we don't need to include it anyway.
Also, ensure that we won't try to use a too-old version of Bison.
The previous coding would bleat but then use it anyway; better to invoke
the 'missing' script if any grammar files need to be rebuilt.
