Research direction
Start by reproducing the behavior with readline_history.py, then inspect the readline module entry point and compare the proposed set_auto_history.patch with set_auto_history.v2.patch. Use test_set_auto_history.py to understand the intended behavior; done means the unexpected add_history call is addressed and the test verifies it.
