Details

There's a new ./mach try fuzzy command that uses fzf to fuzzy select tasks.

We can make use of fzf in other places in-tree. Fzf already provides fuzzy auto-completion for certain common shell commands (type **<tab> on a shell to activate it). We could use a similar activation method to enter fuzzy completion for commands like |mach test|, |mach mochitest|, etc..

See:
https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#fuzzy-completion-for-bash-and-zsh
Jgraham also had the idea of using fzf's --query mode with mach test's --preset
