Added some clarification of between uBlock Origin and uBlock

Hi all, I modified the History chapter to reflect it more factually.

To summarize, Chris didn't 'fork' uBlock, Raymond Hill transferred the official repo to him. Of course, Raymond re-forked it back later (actually almost immediately after) to his own user namespace, which became today's uBlock Origin. I added references too.

Disclaimer: I'm no Chris "supporter" and find his commercial practice questionable, but the old writing was simply wrong and has mislead people before (see my original comments on Hacker News). --fireattack (talk) 19:41, 1 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
