Apply inversions to Views on undo/redo

When using undo/redo, the history revision can be decremented. In that
case we should apply the inversions since the given revision in
History::changes_since. This prevents panics with jumplist operations
when a session uses undo/redo to move the jumplist selection outside
of the document.
