Menu too tall for some screens

[mattstauffer]

Let's look into whether the tool we're using to generate these has multi page options?

@mattstauffer I've looked into the Laravel Console Menu package (source) and the underlying cli-menu package from php-school (source) and looks like there's no option for pagination/scrolling.

We could, technically, limit the number of items displayed in the menu and add an extra "Show More" option or "Next" that would re-render the menu with more options (then showing "Prev" and "Next" options on subsequent pages). Basically implementing pagination manually on top of this menu package.

I personally find this kind of menu a bit limiting (it makes testing more complicated and I'm not very fond of the looks of it), wouldn't reimplementing this in a regular "choices" menu be a better solution? We could even have interactive autocompletion, like:

I like that option!

I have implemented this feature as below:

We can divide the service types and containers for each types into two display like this?

After "Database" is selected in the first menu? It shows like this:

The second menu could have back as well, which just shows the first menu (reset)? [Not implemented still]

Let me know if that's good?

Anyone came anywhere nearby this? @mattstauffer

I like this setup; keeps the list nice and compact.
