[JENKINS-18920] [JobConfigurationHistory] Keep history only for existing builds

Type: New Feature
Resolution: Unresolved
Priority: Minor
Component/s: jobconfighistory-plugin
Labels:
- plugin
- plugins
Environment:
Jenkins 1.509.2 LTS
Job Configuration History 2.4
Tomcat 6.0.36
Java 1.7.0 u25-b15

As of today, the maximum number of history entries can be limited by numbers or "days to keep".

It would be nice if there was an option to keep only the configurations that builds exist for (plus maybe one older configuration).

If there are builds being discarded in Jenkins because of "max # of builds to keep", the job configurations should be discarded as well.
