To be more precise: del should work in addition to delete

I disagree. ip addr delete should still be supported, so you cannot simply
change "delete" to "del" there.

The attached snippet uses strncmp(,key,strlen(key)) rather than strcmp.
This does not catch ambiguous args when you compare the string_array.

For this to work, we'd need to keep track on how many matches we got and
bail if matches > 1.

For the ip applet, the strncmp thing should do it for now, though.
