Initial rework of generic_select function
Here are list of changes: - Removed `sort` parameter, since every function has a sorted list in most cases - Added two new parameters to disable local output of options items and allow empty input from the user by returning None - Added a while loop, where it returns each time a RequirementError is raised - Added log info for each input error to help figure out what the problem is - Changed the check of the stripped input length to compare with 0, since the length cannot be less than 0 - Changed `isdigit` to `isnumeric`, which returns False if given digit is negative - Slightly changed a check for an out of range error - Removed displaying the list of available options when input is incorrect, in order to prevent the screen from overflowing - Added log info if options list is empty - Added log info if options are not dictionary or list - Added dictionary values conversion to accept only list and dictionaries as option - Added sorting dictionary values by default
