Use up/down arrows to search sent history with the same prefix before cursor

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Just like the effect of history-search-backward and history-search-forward in bash, showing the previous/next message with the same string before the cursor when the up/down arrow key is pressed (instead of the immediate previous/next message) can greatly speed up typing, especially when typing commands

Example:

Let's say the sent history looks like this:

Hello! Let's make fun with some commands today.
/scoreboard objectives add n_deaths deathCount Deaths
you mean showing on sidebar?
/scoreboard objectives setdisplay sidebar n_deaths
looks good?
ok,
what about making it to the list?

Now I want to type /scoreboard objectives setdisplay list quickly,
so I type /sc then press the up arrow twice, it should show: (| represents the cursor position)

/sc|oreboard objectives setdisplay sidebar n_deaths

followed by

/sc|oreboard objectives add n_deaths deathCount Deaths

If I move the cursor to the end of objectives, and press down arrow key once, I have

/scoreboard objectives| setdisplay sidebar n_deaths

In this way, I don't need to go through each sent history with a different prefix, that's very convenient.
