Optimize qute://history for SQL backend.

The old implementation was looping through the whole history list, which for
SQL was selecting every row in the database. The history benchmark was taking
~2s. If this is rewritten as a specialized SQL query, the benchmark takes
~10ms, an order of magnitude faster than the original non-SQL implementation.
