This PR adds some basic support for middle-clicking on links in the history panel.
If the user has the setting "Mouse > Bookmarks actions > Middle-click on the bookmark" set to "open in new tab", so that middle-clicking a bookmark opens it in a new tab without navigating away from the bookmarks panel or resetting the search input, then middle-click will behave the same way in the bookmarks panel.
As referenced:
...middle-clicking these items currently does nothing.
Ideally the extension would support a range of mouse settings for the history panel, as it does for the bookmarks panel. I've not implemented that here though. Seems to me that a user would rarely want the on-click behavior of history items to be different to that of bookmarks, so the approach here is just to pull from the bookmarks' settings.
