Add filter/search to MultiSelectionPrompt

[jo-nathan-cw]

Scenario description:

• The user is presented with a list of 50 options, need to select 5
• User knows what options they need, but hunting through the long list is difficult

Scenario possibility with search/filter:

• The list of 50 options is displayed
• The user can search/filter "Bob" to filter the display to show all options with the word "Bob"
• Select "Option Bob"
• Need to repeat this process until 5 options are selected

I'm not sure how the mechanics of selecting an option, then clearing the filter/search and making another search would work via console (I'm used to web-design but never created console stuff)

Some ramblings:

I was thinking after making a selection, the search/filter could auto-clear and reset to the list of 50 so you can immediately search again.

But then what if the user wanted to select all "Bob" options?

If searching "Bob" gave a list of:

• Option Bob 1
• Option Bob 2
• Option Bob 3
• Option Bob 4
• Option Bob 5

Then the user would need to repeat the same search 5 times because on each selection the filter gets cleared, which would be frustrating. So I think auto-clear is not ideal?
