history: read the history file from XDG_STATE_HOME
History is more like application state than a cache you would just want to blow away. Let's reflect that in the path for the history file. Changelog-changed: The location of the command history file has changed to ${XDG_STATE_HOME:-$HOME/.local/state}/aerc/history.
