Draw a multiple choice menu using `list_and_choose` to select items to be deleted by numbers.

User can input:
 *  1,5-7 : select 1,5,6,7 items to be deleted
 *  *     : select all items to be deleted
 *  -*    : unselect all, nothing will be deleted
 *        : (empty) finish selecting, and return back to main menu
