Note: `read-from-minibuffer` is fundamentally the "low-level" function
to read from the minibuffer from which we build higher-level ones like
`completing-read`, `read-number`, ...

Usually, if what you want to do is to read an "arbitrary" string rather
than to construct a new `read-FOO` function, it's better to use
`read-string`.
