ui-select-search has invalid ARIA (aria-expanded) attribute

[msepahvand]

When using the selectize theme with multiple='true', the aria-selected attribute is applied to the hidden <input type='search' class='ui-select-search....'

This is according to the google chrome accessibility extension developer tool.

My workaround is to remove the (line 2426) in select.js. is this a valid workaround? It seems to get rid of the accessibility error at least....I'm happy to submit a PR.

I don't think this is a valid workaround as you are removing from the template cache (correct me if I'm wrong).

I'm not a aria expert so maybe you can have a look if this problem is only in newer version of the library? Or have some alternative ideas to fix this?

The same accessibility error [This element has an unsupported ARIA attribute] occurs with the single select element in the bootstrap theme. I believe aria-expanded="true" should be removed from the single select template (select.tpl.html) for the bootstrap and select2 themes.
