Give the user the number of history items they asked for
Open, MediumPublic

Description

Since we're filtering the history, the user doesn't actually get the number they asked for (50, 100, etc.). This isn't the end of the world; if they click through the 'next' links they will see everything they're intended to see, but it's still wrong.

This can be fixed by letting HistoryPager do the re-querying as needed.

See also T108289: Contributions apparently could have wrong pagination, which should probably be fixed similarly but in ContributionsQuery (since ContribsPager is in core).

Checked in betalabs.

I thought that the fix should apply to the case when a non-admin user requests 20 items per page will get only one due to filtering of suppressed?

vs Admin user requesting and getting 20 items:

Yeah, for some reason this isn't working properly (anymore?) for this case.

E.g. http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:ET10&limit=20&action=history only shows 8 currently. There are well more than 20 the user has permission to see.
