Make nvm list command more interactive #2094

Currently we can select the node version with the command nvm use <version>. Entering the version is time consuming. Also you have to check twice if it is the right version. Very often the command nvm list is a precondition for using the command to select the version.

My enhancement would be to make the nvm list command more interactive. So that we can just select the right version by pressing the up and down arrows.

nvm currently requires/allows no interactivity; i don't think this complexity is really worth it. Entering the version is typing a few characters; there's simply no way it's slower than navigating an interactive list with arrow keys, for example.
