+/// Given a list of 2-element tuples, finds all tuples that have a given
+/// key as the first element and returns the second element.

+/// This function may be useful for interacting with Erlang code where lists of
+/// tuples are common.
+///
+/// ## Examples
+///
+/// ```gleam
+/// > key_filter([#("a", 0), #("b", 1), #("a", 2)], "a")
+/// [0, 2]
+/// ```
