There’s also another thing that I don’t think is mentioned yet. The options available in Settings are supported features. If the feature is only available via about:config then there’s a good chance that it is not supported or tested configuration. It might work or it might not, at least not in all scenarios
I don’t think there a way to open the library to history section via address. Library window history and bookmarks section are the same document, and the buttons that open open library window to history view do it by opening the window with extra window arguments - which you cannot do by simply changing the url.
A possible other option to show history would be to open Firefox view to history section.
