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.
