Description

Keep track of a log of the user's update history in a local file.

Reason

If a typical user comes to us about a regression after an update, they almost certainly don't remember what version they were on before the regression, and there's seemingly no way to retrieve that information. This would make it vastly easier for both the user and for the contributors, because right now, we can make no assumptions about what version a user updated from and simply have to bisect it. This is especially true if the issue is qualitative (e.g. "it's a lot slower") or not easily reproducible.

Examples

For example, if I first start out on v2.1.50, then I update to v2.3.4, then I update to v2.3.140, the file might look something like:

v2.1.50
v2.3.4
v2.3.140
