i looked through readline.h and bash's read builtin code. bash implements
timeouts through a SIGALRM handler which does a longjmp. Readline has some
variables we can look at for the state of the input buffer, and some other
controls. We should be able to make the longjmp conditional on
rl_line_buffer's
length or something. And of course add a flag to read to toggle the behavior.
Then we can get the desired timeout functionality and readline.
