History missing

[Paul]

I suppose it was something in the recent viminfo changes (commits 1727-1728) that has made my commandline and search history inaccessible, ie. empty `q:` and `q/` lists. I note that the history is still there in the viminfo file. Reverting to an earlier version (in my case, 1694), resolves the issue and I can access those histories via the respective commands once more.

I confirmed that 8.1.1727 doesn't have the problem.
It seems that 8.1.1728 is the offending commit.

I can reproduce it. The tests are passing though.
