Select2 will now automatically update the selection if there are options
added to or removed from the DOM within the `<select>` element. This is
supported in all browsers except for Internet Explorer 8. Internet
Explorer 8 does not support the DOM mutation events which were added in
Internet Explorer 9, and it does not support mutation observers which
are the recommended way of handling this in modern browsers.
DOM mutation events also trigger for the `<select>` itself when it is
pulled from the DOM, so we need to filter these out within the event
handler.
Despite supporting mutation observers, we cannot accurately detect if
the removed option was selected at one time or another, so we need to
always re-pull the selection when an element is deleted.

This builds upon https://github.com/select2/select2/pull/4249
Previously we hacked around the infinite loop between closeOnSelect and
selectOnClose by attempting to detect what event was being triggered
without knowing what event triggered it. Now we properly relay the
Select2 event and the jQuery event that triggered the select or unselect
This closes https://github.com/select2/select2/issues/4012
This will include the event type in the _type property, so it can be
accessed within the event handlers if it's not normally passed in. This
should not conflict with any existing handlers, and this should not be
considered a public property on event arguments.
This adds basic support for focusing the Select2 element by triggering
the `focus` event on the underlying <select> element. This implicitly
adds support for <label> elements, which will trigger the `focus` event
on the `<select>` if it is clicked.
This also fixes the focus issue that previously existed if Select2 was
opened while in a <label>. The focus would be transferred to the search
dropdown, and then immediately pulled away to the <select> element. This
happened because the <label> element triggers the `focus` event when a
`click` event propagates its way up, and we do not stop the propagation
of the `click` event when it is triggered on the selection.

Previously the tokenizer only worked when creating multiple options
at once if all of the options existed. It always worked when creating
a single option, because all of the special cases were handled by the
tagging module. When working with multiple options, the tagging
module does not kick in until after the query has been run, which
is when the tokenizer does its magic.
This fixes the issue by automatically creating the option tags that
the tagging module would normally create. It only does this if the
options do not already exist, so we don't need to worry about the
tokenizer creating duplicates of existing options.

The error handler should not be raised if a request is aborted while
another one is sent out. This attempts to detect those cases by
handling the case where the error was raised and the request has a
status code of 0, which should either mean we're in offline mode or
the request was aborted.

Previously the `dropdownAutoWidth` option didn't work because the
dropdown was being absolutely positioned, so setting the width to
`auto` didn't actually have an effect. This cannot be solved by
just setting the width on the container, because that is also
absolutely positioned.

This fixes an issue that has existed since Select2 4.0.1 where the
arguments passed into each `<select>` were mutated. This no longer
mutates the arguments for each element, and instead only drops the
first argument once.

This display the `errorLoading` translation when there is an error
during the AJAX cycle. Previously we were just throwing these errors
out, now we are actually displaying an error message.

This fixes an edge case that occurred pretty much whenever anyone would
use array data with existing selections along with a placeholder. This
caused the existing selections to be discarded, because the `selected`
property was not being transferred over to the new option. This was
based the new data was being preferred over the data that could be
inferred from the option, and the new data typically did not include the
selected state. As a result, the option was assumed to not be selected.
This was not cause by existing tests because all of the existing tests
only covered cases where the selected option was the first option, and
that was not affected by this bug.
This call to `$.fn.position` was causing an error in IE 8 because the
`offsetParent` was null on the container for some reason. It's not
needed, so this line of code has been removed.
This should fix the test failures in IE 8.
There was a commit that landed in 4.0.1 that fixed positioning for
non-static elements, which are commonly used for the custom
`dropdownParent` option, but broke positioning for statically positioned
elements, commonly used in almost every other case. That commit was
c9216b4b96
This fixes the positioning issues caused by that commit by properly
calculating the offsets for statically positioned parents. Statically
positioned parents are unique, because the offset for the dropdown must
be calculated based on the closest element that is non-statically
positioned. Otherwise, the offset for any statically positioned parent
other than the body will be considerably higher than it should be,
resulting in the dropdown being offset by a large amount.
The offset parent for the body element is the html element, which is why
this works for both the body element and any custom parents for the
dropdown. This would not be needed if the parent wasn't customizable (as
seen in Select2 3.x) because you will never need to offset the body
element if it is statically positioned, because the html element almost
never has an offset.
This also fixes JSHint issues within the tests added in the last commit.

This fixes an infinite loop that used to be caused when both
`closeOnSelect` and `selectOnClose` used to be combined, because they
both were listening to events triggered by the other one. The problem
was that `selectOnClose` was triggering `select` events for data objects
which had already been selected. This problem was solved by checking if
the data object was already selected before trying to select it again.

In
f1e86470ca
we tried to fix the issue where multiple instances created in a single
call would share the same options, and this worked for the most common
cases. Unfortunately it did not work for the case where data attributes
were also used with an options object, and as a result data attributes
would be copied to all instances. Data attributes are supposed to be
specific to a single instance.
This was fixed by moving the `true` for the deep copy to the start of
the `$.extend` call, as this is where jQuery looks for the deep copy
flag.

This fixes a previous bug with the backspace handler on the multiple
select search box where unselecting a choice through the keyboard would
not properly size the search box. As a result, most of the text would be
cut off and it was very clear that there was an issue.
In addition, a blank space was automatically being added to the end of
the search query. This blank space would not be removed at all, so the
user had to manually remove it.
Additionally, a query would be triggered for the last used search term
instead of the new search term that would be loaded in. This caused
incorrect results to be displayed most of the time.
All of these issues have been fixed by triggering a new search query
after an option has been removed through the keyboard. This will resize
the search box automatically, which fixes the main issue, and it will
trigger a search with the correct query.

This fixes an issue when any of Select2's special options are called on
multiple elements, it would only affect the first option in the group.
This was because Select2 was only applying any changes to the first
element in the group (as chosen by jQuery) instead of applying changes
on each and every element within the list.
This has the new side effect of special options like `select2('data')`
returning the results for the last element in the list instead of the
first element. Because the previous functionality was considered
unspecified behaviour, this is not being treated as a breaking change.
