I updated NEWS, but not the Emacs manual because the new nil value
is useful only for some old users (who want its old behavior),
not for new users.

Currently the structure of query-replace-history is very simple, but in
bug#25591 we are going to find a solution to store more meta-information

ELisp manual.
