When navigating through history in EWW, don't keep adding to 'eww-history'
This resolves an issue where navigating back and then forward kept
adding new history entries so you could never hit the "end" (bug#69232).
* lisp/net/eww.el (eww-before-browse-history-function): New option.
(eww-history-position): Add docstring.
(eww-mode-map, eww-context-menu): Use correct predicates for when to
enable back/forward.
(eww-save-history): Save history entry in its original place when
viewing a historical page.
(eww--before-browse): New function...
(eww, eww-follow-link, eww-readable): ... call it.
(eww-render): Don't set 'eww-history-position' here...
(eww--before-browse): ... instead, set it here.
(eww-back-url): Set 'eww-history-position' based on the result of
'eww-save-history'.
(eww-forward-url): Set 'eww-history-position' directly, since
'eww-save-history' no longer adds a new entry in this case.
(eww-delete-future-history, eww-clone-previous-history): New functions.
* test/lisp/net/eww-tests.el: New file.
* etc/NEWS: Announce this change.
