• Closes clearOptions() deselects currently-selected items, but does not remove them as options #2146
• Closes clearOptions should not clear items #593 (if you call clearOptions(false, false))

• clearOptions() now, by default, removes currently-selected items in addition to deselecting them,
  as it did prior to selectize v0.12.5.
  • This behavior is controlled by a new parameter removeCurrentItems, default true.
  • If removeCurrentItems is set false, the function will instead leave currently-selected items
    available and selected, as was the case from selectize v0.12.5, until v0.13.1 introduced
    #2146 (which this change fixes).
  • For consistency, silent also has a (backwards-compatible) default value of false now.
  • Thus, the full signature is now clearOptions(silent = false, removeCurrentItems = true)

I don't feel very strongly about the new parameter being default true, as long as whatever its default value is, is correctly and comprehensively documented. You could make the argument either way.
