IE 11 Compatibility

[jtitley]

May I suggest some changes to support IE 11? I was finally able to achieve it and have all functionality working with the following changes. Since you know the code I think you can avoid this complex fix by avoiding some incompatible functions like ForEach and new Event.

In getmdl-select.js add the following function to replace new Event()
// For IE Compatibility
// source: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CustomEvent/CustomEvent
function CustomEvent(event, params) {
params = params || { bubbles: false, cancelable: false, detail: undefined };
var evt = document.createEvent('CustomEvent');
evt.initCustomEvent(event, params.bubbles, params.cancelable, params.detail);
return evt;
}

Where you use new Event, do the following:

var event;
try { event = new Event('closeSelect');} catch(err) {}
if (event == undefined) {
event = window.CustomEvent('closeSelect');
}

To support NodeList ForEach I added this in whenLoaded()
// source: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/NodeList/forEach
if (window.NodeList && !NodeList.prototype.forEach) {
NodeList.prototype.forEach = function (callback, thisArg) {
thisArg = thisArg || window;
for (var i = 0; i < this.length; i++) {
callback.call(thisArg, this[i], i, this);
}
};
}

@jtitley , can you instruct me where the code to put? or can you give me changed file so that i can use into my project, btw thanks for your work.

I've forked a copy here: Just copy getdtl-select.js

I'll leave it up to the owner to determine if this gets folded into this version.

I don't quite understand how the author generated the .min versions so I've left them alone.
