Suggestion: CBM - Give each kernel a unique number/code so it's easier to select instead of typing out full name

[bktan8]

It would be nice to put a unique number/code in front of each kernel when I do a "list".
And then when I do a "set", I can just use the number/code instead of having to type up the full name.
Less chance for mistakes that way.

The list could change, making the numbers invalid. But yes, in a console, where you can't copy and paste, this would be a problem.

tab completion may be a good solution here.

set having tab completion would be reasonable.

we could hash the kernel name and support a short hash.

The output of efibootmgr comes to mind. Maybe that style?

[dorileo]

@puneetse that's exactly what @ahkok is trying to avoid. I agree with him, the list may change between calling list and set kernel.

Tab completion works for me in zsh btw. @lebensterben submitted a PR so I think this is fine as is.
