How to provide search through all option and group name? #162

Hi, is it a way to provide search not only by the items but also by group names? What can I try to implement this? I can do it by placing additional span with group name and visibility: none. But I don't think it's good decision.

Due to the primitive design of the search. It is not very easy to implement without break the current function The search is actually transverse the dom tree of option menu. which make it a little inflexible for these kind of change. https://github.com/lordfriend/nya-bootstrap-select/blob/master/src/nya-bs-public.js#L284

So, it is not very different from placing a hidden element in option.
