Show-Command like panel

[corbob]

Summary of the new feature

ISE has a pane for Show-Command. It would be good to have something similar to this in VS Code.

Numerous users have expressed the lack of this feature for why they don't use VS Code for PowerShell.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

A side bar view for this seems to make the most sense.

Just putting some thoughts out there so I don't lose them.

I've created a project on my fork for this, adding cards for small chunks as I think of them or encounter someone mentioning it. The project is here: https://github.com/corbob/vscode-powershell/projects/1

Unfortunately due to this issue: microsoft/vscode#50062 We may not be able to get searching working just yet. My focus will be around what's available to us today and if we get search/filter in the future then we can work on that.
