Ideally, TB2 should consume O(1) memory no matter how many results are run. This cannot be true if History stores events and results. To satisfy this, History keeps statistics and there is the TB2::NoHistory subclass which does not store events.

Unfortunately, when something is passed a "History" object, it might be NoHistory and thus some methods might not be safe to use. This is awkward. The relationship should be inverted. TB2::History should only keep statistics. A subclass or role or even separate watcher should store roles and events.

Change Test::Builder2::History to only store event statistics. Add whatever methods are necessary to make History useful to all its current users.

Write a role which stores events and results. Make sure there's a hook in History->accept_event to store the event if $self does the role.

TB2::History will take over this role eventually (see #198).  Meanwhile, there's no
point in letting people rely on a half implementation that's going to be deleted.

For #241

…ventStorage object.

Then we can add an EventStorage that throws out events.

This was the last use of TB2::Stack and TB2::StackBuilder, so they're removed.

Also test that things work with event storage off.  Not terribly well tested right now.

So the user sees their own call to TB2::History not inside TB2::History.

Things which are needed:
1) A way to turn on storage in
   use Test::More
   Test::Builder->create
2) Better docs about how to use (or not use) Test::Builder->results, events and
   Test::More summary and details.

* Move all the count attributes together
* Remove a now irrelevant comment

Complete. I decided to use a storage object rather than a role. Per-object roles might not make it after Mouse gets torn out and they might have performance issues.
