History Substring Search

Integrates zsh-history-substring-search into Prezto, which implements the Fish shell's history search feature, where the user can type in any part of a previously entered command and press up and down to cycle through matching commands.

If this module is used in conjunction with the syntax-highlighting module, this module must be loaded after the syntax-highlighting module.
