Description

I'd love to be able to use rebel-readline in shadow-cljs' REPL experience. There's probably some work that needs to be done to enable switching between the CLJ and CLJS REPLs but I'm not exactly sure what that'd be. I may try to set up a repo with a demo config just to see if I can get it working.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the shadow-cljs REPL experience with a small demo configuration, as suggested in the issue, and inspect how the CLJ and CLJS REPLs are selected. Determine the entry points involved in switching between them and verify rebel-readline integration there. Done means a documented demo can use rebel-readline while switching between both REPLs.
