History Limiter Custom Extension

A personal edit of nschneirov's History Limiter put up to share.
Overall the logic remain unchanged from the original version.

Main changes:
- code reworks to eliminate need for jQuery and to facilitate manifest ver 2
- event page enabled
- no changes to logic, no new functions

The main aim of this edit is to make it event page enabled so it unloads when not needed thus saving memory.

=================
CHANGELOG:

1.2 [21/04/2018]
- back to using a set button to overcome the premature clear
- some minor UI changes
