Suggestion: Notify user of "bonus feature" in man, help, or nox

...Once you have the results, type the numbers of the packages to install.

Bonus: if you enter the letter 's' at the beginning of the package numbers list, a nix-shell will be started with those packages instead.

Cool feature! I arrived here for a separate issue, found this, and was compelled to suggest that you mention this in the non-existent man-page, help summary, or with nox during use.

I had forgotten about this feature, so yeah, it's a good idea!

I'll be far away from the internet next week, so if you want to add it yourself (maybe around here https://github.com/madjar/nox/blob/master/nox/search.py#L79 to display it during nox use), feel free!

Thanks for the pointer! I'll try to slice out some time to get on it.
