Integration with translation history service #37

Hi,

First of all, thanks for all the development work you guys did! It's an awesome extension I use everyday.

As I generally try to learn words I do not know, I would really appreciate to see the history of the words I've searched for in the past and ability to repeat/train their meanings. I did some research and it seems there is no such a tool except readlang.com which has its own extension. The extension is not really usable to be honest - you can check it out here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/readlang-web-reader/odpdkefpnfejbfnmdilmfhephfffmfoh

For that reason I was thinking to build a tool by myself and integrate it with your chrome extension. I would see this as an additional setting in your TransOver options where you would connect the TransOver with the "history tool" and that would be it. From that time on, anything you would search for would be also logged in the "history tool".

Now, in terms of the development of that integration, I am happy to do the development by myself and just send you a pull request. Before doing any work on this, I thought to check with you guys whether you would be open to this integration at all or not.

Happy to hear your thoughts! Thanks a lot!
