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
Examine rebel readline library to understand its integration requirements. Review shadow cljs REPL source code (likely in shadow cljs/src/main/shadow/cljs/repl.clj). Set up a demo repository to test integration. Check for any existing discussions or attempts in the issue comments or related issues.
