History filter (#329)
* Add history filters, and hotkey toggle

Switch between different search modes to narrow down the history you
want - global search for all history, host for all history from your
current machine, session for the current shell session, and directory
for the current directory

The default can be configured via `filter_mode`

* Update docs

* Add context

# Config
Atuin maintains two configuration files, stored in `~/.config/atuin/`. We store
data in `~/.local/share/atuin` (unless overridden by XDG\_\*).
You can also change the path to the configuration directory by setting
`ATUIN_CONFIG_DIR`. For example
```
export ATUIN_CONFIG_DIR = /home/ellie/.atuin
```
## Client config
```
~/.config/atuin/config.toml
```
The client runs on a user's machine, and unless you're running a server, this
is what you care about.
See [config.toml](../atuin-client/config.toml) for an example
### `dialect`
This configures how the [stats](stats.md) command parses dates. It has two
possible values
```
dialect = "uk"
```
or
```
dialect = "us"
```
and defaults to "us".
### `auto_sync`
Configures whether or not to automatically sync, when logged in. Defaults to
true
```
auto_sync = true/false
```
### `sync_address`
The address of the server to sync with! Defaults to `https://api.atuin.sh`.
```
sync_address = "https://api.atuin.sh"
```
### `sync_frequency`
How often to automatically sync with the server. This can be given in a
"human readable" format. For example, `10s`, `20m`, `1h`, etc. Defaults to `1h`.
If set to `0`, Atuin will sync after every command. Some servers may potentially
rate limit, which won't cause any issues.
```
sync_frequency = "1h"
```
### `db_path`
The path to the Atuin SQlite database. Defaults to
`~/.local/share/atuin/history.db`.
```
db_path = "~/.history.db"
```
### `key_path`
The path to the Atuin encryption key. Defaults to
`~/.local/share/atuin/key`.
```
key = "~/.atuin-key"
```
### `session_path`
The path to the Atuin server session file. Defaults to
`~/.local/share/atuin/session`. This is essentially just an API token
```
key = "~/.atuin-session"
```
### `search_mode`
Which search mode to use. Atuin supports "prefix", full text and "fuzzy" search
modes. The prefix searches for "query\*", fulltext "\*query\*", and fuzzy applies
the search syntax [described below](#fuzzy-search-syntax).
Defaults to "prefix"
### `filter_mode`
The default filter to use when searching
| Column1 | Column2 |
|--------------- | --------------- |
| global (default) | Search history from all hosts, all sessions, all directories |
| host | Search history just from this host |
| session | Search history just from the current session |
| directory | Search history just from the current directory|
Filter modes can still be toggled via ctrl-r
```
search_mode = "fulltext"
```
#### `fuzzy` search syntax
The "fuzzy" search syntax is based on the
[fzf search syntax](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#search-syntax).
| Token | Match type | Description |
| --------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| `sbtrkt` | fuzzy-match | Items that match `sbtrkt` |
| `'wild` | exact-match (quoted) | Items that include `wild` |
| `^music` | prefix-exact-match | Items that start with `music` |
| `.mp3$` | suffix-exact-match | Items that end with `.mp3` |
| `!fire` | inverse-exact-match | Items that do not include `fire` |
| `!^music` | inverse-prefix-exact-match | Items that do not start with `music` |
| `!.mp3$` | inverse-suffix-exact-match | Items that do not end with `.mp3` |
A single bar character term acts as an OR operator. For example, the following
query matches entries that start with `core` and end with either `go`, `rb`,
or `py`.
```
^core go$ | rb$ | py$
```
