I came across test-case gdb.python/remove-readline-finder.exp.

It checks that a "python import readline" command fails.

Extend the test-case with also checking that the readline module is not
present in the sys.modules dict.

While we're at it, modernize a regexp using multi_line.

Tested on x86_64-linux (using make-check-all.sh) and aarch64-linux.
