Page history tracking

The current methodology of tracking page history utilises two $_SESSION variables 'history' and 'picker'. This is not easy to use unless the feature consists of select category, use search picker, then deliver selected item.

Using these variables to track pages in features that repeatidly request the same page but with different content can be very time consuming to ensure correct pages are tracked to go 'Back' to. Parameters add, del, p_del are used differently on various pages causing further confusion.

A common page history tracking system should be implemented, maybe in page.php, which acts upon a single URL parameter hist which determines whether a page should be Added, Removed, or Replaced on the history stack. This would replace the existing search_hist functions in search.php.

(In revision:1501) Modified the page history tracker in page.php to avoid possible conflicts with other modules. When the $_SESSION does not contain any 'hist' then an error is sent to the logfile and the returned page is index.php.

(In revision:1649) Page history tracking improvements:
- Common page parameters such as page, any, last, search, thumbs now ignored when checking for page replacement.
- Calls to page_hist_current_update() should always use the full URL of the page. ie. http://192.168.0.2:8080/tv.php and not just tv.php.
