 Instead of hard linking gitk let the user set
 the preferred history visualization tool in settings dialog.

Signed-off by: Marco Costalba <mcostalba@gmail.com> ---

A thing I was not able to figure out is how to save the settings so that at restart of ugit the saved setting is found again (instead of selecting the default 'gitk')

Anyhow a really nice tool this ugit thing, you managed to playing catch-up with git-gui really fast.
