Psreadline: PSReadline should provide suggestions when command is not found

[SteveL-MSFT]

Example:

Get-Prcss

Should return:

Get-Process (and other similar cmdlets)

I've sort of implemented that in https://github.com/dfinke/PowerShellFuzzySearch. I've looked into integrating with PSReadLine, but couldn't figure it out in the fleeting spare moment I had to look at it.

@cdhunt , this would be awesome. I'd love to see a fork of PSReadLIne with such integrated.

@1RedOne I got a basic Handler working. It uses Out-GridView so the experience is meh, but it's a start.

@lzybkr Do you have an example of how to implement some in-console-based selection list like the built-in tab-completion?

[lzybkr]

MenuComplete is where the cool tab completion selection is implemented, but it doesn't work correctly on Linux - I need to redo the rendering.

When I get to that, I'll keep in mind making it more generic and adding an API for you.

This is related to the work of re-designing suggestion framework in PowerShell.
