/*
 * Progressive enhancement for a plain <select data-searchable> (single or
 * `multiple`): a small typeahead combobox, a select2-alike without the
 * dependency. Type to filter, click or Enter to pick; the hidden <select>
 * still carries the actual value(s) the form submits, so this degrades to a
 * normal dropdown with no JS. A `multiple` select gets removable chips for
 * each pick instead of replacing its own value.
 *
 * Opt in with `data-searchable="true"` on the widget; `data-search-placeholder`
 * sets the search input's placeholder (see management/forms.py).
