Describe the bug
I tried to use method setChoiceByValue to programmatically set the selected item. It works correctly when you look at the UI (dropdown not shown) and getValue() from Choice instance.
However when you click to show the dropdown, the selected item is not highlighted.
To Reproduce
<html lang="en">

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
<title>Document</title>

<div>
<label v-if="label" class="form-label">label here</label>
<select
id="se-dropdown"
class="form-control"
name="choices-button"
></select>
</div>
<button id="set-choice-by-value">setChoiceByValue('yahoo')</button>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/choices.js/public/assets/scripts/choices.min.js"></script>
<script>
const searchEngineChoiceList = [
{
id: 1,
value: "google",
label: "Google",
},
{
id: 2,
value: "yahoo",
label: "Yahoo",
},
{
id: 3,
value: "bing",
label: "Bing",
},
];
const element = document.getElementById("se-dropdown");
const choices = new Choices(element);
choices.setChoices(searchEngineChoiceList);
const setChoiceBtn = document.getElementById("set-choice-by-value");
setChoiceBtn.addEventListener("click", function () {
choices.setChoiceByValue("yahoo");
});
</script>
</body>
</html>```
**Expected behavior**
item which is selected by setChoiceByValue should be highlighted when the dropdown is shown, just like manually click on item.
