      * @param options.traditional a boolean flag that should be true if you wish to use the traditional style of param serialization for the ajax request
      * @param options.quietMillis (optional) milliseconds to wait before making the ajaxRequest, helps debounce the ajax function if invoked too often
      * @param options.results a function(remoteData, pageNumber) that converts data returned form the remote request to the format expected by Select2.
