      checkpoint_use_history is a config that is only used by LSM that was removed in WT-12751 LSM: remove feature. According to this comment in __wt_curfile_open the config exists because:

           * 4. The LSM code also opens cursors on single-file checkpoints with no corresponding history
           * store or snapshot information. It takes steps to make sure everything in the checkpoint is
           * globally visible and sets checkpoint_use_history=false to indicate we shouldn't try to open
           * the history store or retrieve the snapshot. If we were to try, we'd fail and the LSM code
           * would get upset.
      

      Now that LSM is removed we can also remove this config.
