Idea: Simplify record keys #116

Description

@FelixTheodor

Currently, the only way to reference a record is its key: the specific time it has been started. This is laborious to write down number by number, or you need to copy paste it every time. We already have the latest alias, but maybe we could simplify this even more by letting the user reference a record of the current day by entering its "ID", that is already created on the fly via

timetrace list records today

|  #  |       KEY        |  PROJECT  |  START  |    END    |  BILLABLE  |

|   1 | 2021-06-11-12-52 | test1     | 12:52   | 12:55     | no         |
|   2 | 2021-06-11-12-51 | test3     | 12:51   | 12:53     | no         |
|   3 | 2021-06-11-12-49 | test2     | 12:49   | 12:51     | no         |
|   4 | 2021-06-11-12-48 | test1     | 12:48   | 12:49     | no         |

I imagine it like this:

timetrace edit record #1 -p 5m
