Description
We already got a fuzzy matcher (`src/fuzzy.rs`), now all we need is the matching command palette! We can then use it for representing the existing encoding picker, indentation picker, and file picker dialogs.
My biggest open question is: What shortcut do we use? If you take the union of all keyboard keys that popular terminals _don't_ use for themselves already, you're practically left with only A-Z. 😢 Perhaps Ctrl+P is still our best bet, even if it doesn't work in VS Code.
As part of this we should solve #228.

Research direction
Start by reading src/fuzzy.rs and reviewing the existing encoding picker, indentation picker, and file picker dialogs. Resolve the shortcut choice and the relationship to issue #228 before designing the command palette. Done means a command palette exists and can represent those three existing picker dialogs.
