Summary of the new feature/enhancement

If I've run an app before, it should be weighted to appear above other apps in the search results. This'll make it easier to optimize for shorter character searches later :)

@alekyaredding28 I thought we weighted stuff, should we increase the weight?

from #7520 (comment) via @somil55

@crutkas This feature was inherited from Wox and is already present in MainViewModel. This just needs to be added back in the code flow

private void QueryHistory()
{
#pragma warning disable CA1308 // Normalize strings to uppercase
var query = QueryText.ToLower(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).Trim();
#pragma warning restore CA1308 // Normalize strings to uppercase
History.Clear();
var results = new List<Result>();
foreach (var h in _history.Items)
