Closes #4486

When a spec changes its shortname, the W3C history page for the new name
doesn't exist until after the first publication. The previous HEAD check
then silently suppressed the history link in the header, even though
Pubrules ignores the HTTP status of history links.

Remove the HEAD check and always set historyURI for any TR-published
document (canShowHistory). This also removes the special-case list for
FPWD/DNOTE/NOTE/DRY, since those are now covered uniformly.

Fixes #4486
