Version 6.0.2

Fixes: #527 / #377

Version 6.0.1

• Upgrades Fuse.js to fix IE11 issues

Version 6.0.0

The regexFilter config option has now been removed and replaced with addItemFilterFn which is more flexible.
The toggleDropdown method has also been removed as it was broken and arguably unnecessary.

This release also fixes a bug where the dropdown message would not display whilst typing.

Version 5.0.0

With this release the following polyfills have been removed to reduce the bundle size:

Array.prototype.find
Array.prototype.includes
Array.from

If you need to support browsers that do not have these features, see here: https://github.com/jshjohnson/Choices#browser-compatibility

This release hopefully also resolves rendering performance issues with large data sets.
