Never rewrite history file when adding ephemeral items

When I run a command with leading space, it is not added to the on-disk
history.  However we still call History::save().  After 25 of such calls,
we rewrite the history file (even though nothing was written by us).

This is annoying when diagnosing #10300 where the history of the current
shell (but not other shells) is broken; because the history rewrite will
make the problem go away. Let's not save in this case, to make it easier to
run commands to inspect the state of the history file.
