bug#6433: 24.0.50; comint-write/read-input-ring ignore certain buffer locals

[Andreas Politz]

Both functions ignore certain buffer-local values of comint variables
due to working partially in temporary buffers.

I think for most of them buffer-local values (therefor process-local)
would make sense.  For example we might want to use multiline commands
with one process, using a special comint-input-ring-separator, but
compatible newline-seperated commands for a different one.
