Description
### Description
This RFC proposes adding support for displaying suggested corrections in the REPL when a user enters an identifier which does not exist. This functionality would be similar to what is offered by Julia and discussed in https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/28347.
For example, currently, when a user enters an undefined identifier
```
In [1]: base.abbs( -1.0 )
Error: base.abbs is not a function
```
This RFC proposes extending this to do something along the lines of
```
In [1]: base.abbs( -1.0 )
Error: base.abbs is not a function
Perhaps you meant base.abs, base.abs2, ...
```
There may be other UI options, and we could, similar to Julia, provide suggestions when a user provides an unknown name to `help()` (or other similar built-in REPL commands).
