This was undocumented, not all that useful and potentially unwanted. In particular it means that things like mysql -p(read) will still keep the password in history. Also it allows us to simply implement asking for the history deletion term. See fish-shell#5791.

Convinced me - let's do it. LGTM. If this proves controversial we can add it back as an opt-in, it ought not to be the default. |

Description
This removes
builtin reads history, which is:mysql -p(read)before, with the intention that these not show up in the history)Then it uses
readinhistory deleteif no searchterms are given.An alternative would be to add a flag to
readto not keep history (read --incognitoorread --no-history?), or to readd the--mode-nameflag and expect that. I've not done so because I don't see the use in the read history, and I believe that the expectation usually is that it doesn't keep history.Fixes issue #5791
