bug#46339: 28.0.50; ERC likely bug with `erc-previous-command'

[Emanuel Berg via "Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army knife of text editors" <bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org>]

In ERC, try type /n RET, then type abc and invoke
`erc-previous-command'

  erc-add-to-input-ring: Wrong type argument: erc-input, "abc"

what does that mean? `erc-next-command' works so a bug is
perhaps likely.
