helpview: Introduce scroll-bar for scrolling through HelpView.
This is more of a food for thought PR (hence the 'draft') in hopes that it may possibly be an option we may want to consider one day. This introduces the feature of having a scroll-bar in ListBox's whose purpose would be to
- Aid navigation (UX wise).
- Give a visual sense of 'how much more' there is to scroll.
- Possibly avoid the Up/Down in the title.
As it stands the feature isn't implemented yet in urwid and has been adapted from https://github.com/rndusr/stig/blob/master/stig/tui/scroll.py.
A screenshot of this implemented on the HelpView, looks as follows:
An alternative to this may be something like this https://github.com/AFoeee/additional_urwid_widgets/wiki/IndicativeListBox, though that does use space at the top and bottom.
