chore: persist bash history in the dev container - #38

The debian base image sets HISTFILE to /home/dev/.local/state/bash/history, so a named volume mounted on that directory keeps the shell history across container rebuilds, matching what the bare-devcontainer templates now ship. The image pin moves to the release that creates the directory: without it the mount point would be created by Docker and owned by root instead of dev.
