Subject: history: Add enable/disable toggle

This helps a bit with privacy. By disabling history, it wipes all
notifications in the D-Bus buffer and prevents further storage. The
history popup is also disabled.

Notification storage resumes when history is enabled.

Note that this just prevents the mate-notifications-daemon from storing
notifications, but it doesn't prevent other processes from capturing
them elsewhere.
