Javi Merino 754d074027 Add an option to remove event numbers from search
Event numbers don't add information to the search: if you knew the
event number you wouldn't be searching for the command.  Add an option
to remove them from the search to declutter it.  Default it to true to
preserve the current behaviour.

## TODO
* use fzf's keybindings for additional functionality (remove specific history item, clear history, etc) while keeping plugin's simplicity in mind ([issue](https://github.com/joshskidmore/zsh-fzf-history-search/issues/10))
* better documentation ([issue](https://github.com/joshskidmore/zsh-fzf-history-search/issues/11))
