An updated version of the SQL history code is now committed to midas svn.

The new code is in history_sql.cxx. It implements a C++ interface to the MIDAS history (history.h),
and improves on the old code history_odbc.cxx by adding:
- an index table for remembering MIDAS names of SQL tables and columns (our midas users like to use funny characters in history 
names that are not permitted in SQL table and column names),
- caching of database schema (event names, etc) with a noticeable speedup of mhttpd (there is a new button on the history panel editor 
"clear history cache" to make mhttpd reload the database schema.

The updated documentation for using SQL history is committed to midas svn doxfiles/internal.dox (svn up; make dox; firefox 
doxfiles/html/index.html), or see my copy on the web at
