Using tinyMCE reloads jQuery namespace, select2 registers in the new jQuery namespace

[jaikanthjay46]

I have this weird script order, jquery loads , jquery-ui registers itself, jquery.init.js where jQuery name space is cleared and moved to django.jQuery.

• Now, easy-select2 loads, no jQuery so fills it with django.jQuery and stored $ and _djq, both pointing to django.jQuery and remains that way due to closure.
• Next tinymce's jQuery loads replaces jQuery namespace.
• Next select2 load and register to the newly created jQuery namespace.
• easy-select js nows tries to call select2 since it remembers only django.jQuery instance (due to closure) a error is thrown stating there is no function select2

Hello and thank you for bug report!

Sadly, i do not use django for a few years now, so this library is mainained by @gauravv7 and community.

Feel free to submit a PR :)

Thanks for taking notice, I wish there were more elegant ways to solve this @gauravv7, hit me up if you have some.

@jaikanthjay46 all we want is to capture an instance of select2 to work upon, your approach seems fine. I ll do some more testing to figure more edge cases. basically we don't want to pick an object from unknown source, so as we get unknown behavior. JS allows us monkey-patching.
