cli: allow users to determine history buffer allocation method
This commit allows users to choose the appropriate memory
allocation method between static allocated and dynamically
calloc. The previous static-array way will not obviously
contribute to the final binary size since it is uninitialized,
and might have better performance than the dynamical one.
Now we provide the users with both the two options.

+ Saying Y to this will use calloc to get the space for history
+ storing. Otherwise the history buffer will be an uninitialized
+ static array directly, without the memory allocation, and it is
+ writable after relocation to RAM. If u-boot is running from ROM
+ all the time or unsure, say Y to this.
