Refactor help menu navigation functions for simplicity and consistency #1028

Description

Problem

The help menu navigation functions (helpMenuListUp and helpMenuListDown) in src/internal/handle_modal.go have several issues that need to be addressed:

  1. Too complicated - The navigation logic is overly complex and hard to follow
  2. Can be simplified - There's significant room for refactoring to make the code more maintainable
  3. Similar to sidebar up down - The functions appear to duplicate patterns from sidebar navigation, suggesting inconsistency in approach
  4. Not unit tested - The navigation functions lack proper test coverage

Proposed Solution

  • Simplify the navigation logic by following patterns established in sidebar navigation
  • Reduce complexity and improve readability
  • Add comprehensive unit tests for the navigation functions
  • Ensure consistency with other navigation implementations in the codebase

Context

This issue was identified during review of PR #1011 which adds search functionality to the help menu. The navigation functions were modified as part of that PR but the underlying complexity issues should be addressed separately.
