:hidden and :visible selectors are not available

The :hidden and :visible selectors are not available.

http://api.jquery.com/hidden-selector/ http://api.jquery.com/visible-selector/

Test case:

var cheerio = require('cheerio');
var $ = cheerio.load('<h1 style="display:none">Test</h1>');
console.log($("h1:hidden").length);

Error:

SyntaxError: unmatched pseudo-class :hidden

I needed to remove :hidden elements, and so I made this piece of code which checks .css('display') value:

var cheerio = require('cheerio');
var $ = cheerio.load('<h1 style="display:none">Test Hidden</h1><h1>Test Visible</h1>');

$.root().children().filter(function(i, el) {
    var display = $(this).css('display');
    if (display === 'none')
        $(this).remove();
});

console.log($.html());
// <h1>Test Visible</h1>

IMHO this would do more harm than good - a partial implementation would have people expecting the selector to work properly, which it never will.
