New pathhistory setting for the history database directory

About it, the default pathhistory value for new installations remains 
pathdb in the shipped inn.conf file.  It can be set at configure time 
with the --with-history-dir option, or manually changed after the 
installation.

I think it is fine to keep the history database in its legacy directory. 
  One has to elaborate a special configuration to benefit from having a 
separate directory for it.
If someone believes it would be better to ship <prefix>/history by 
default instead of <prefix>/db in the sample inn.conf file, do not 
hesitate to tell.
