Select List Card displays an input_select entity as a list in lovelace

Select list Card

Display the options of an input_select entity as a clickable list card.
In other words: the content of the dropdown menu is displayed as a card.
The input_select.select_option service is called after the user clicks (selects) an option.

Some use cases:

• Select with too many options to show in dropdown
• Options with long titles
• Have all options directly shown
• You dont't want the extra click to open the dropdown menu
