Turn on emacs line editing mode by default, as this is what most shells do

Browse Source 
these days, and the average user expects ^A and arrow keys to work, however
if they know nothing of editing modes, they will think sh(1) just sucks.  It
is likely that because of defaults on most systems and with most shells that
anyone who actually wants vi(1) editing mode will have 'set -o vi'.  This
won't affect existing accounts, this way, of course.  Only accounts with
.shrc from new etc/skel will be affected.  This is much better than making
the change in sh(1).
