Make display of `emptyLabel` optional

See original GitHub issue

Currently there’s no way to disable displaying the emptyLabel. It feels overkill to completely write the rendering of all items just to toggle this behavior on/off.

It would be nice to be able to toggle the “empty item” on/off either through an option (e.g. displayEmptyLabel=false) or through some sort of convention (e.g. emptyLabel="" means don’t display it).

Apologies for the delayed response. The use case is: I want to suggest options to the user, but not necessarily treat these options as “a list of valid inputs”. So if the user types “Some long string” and I have no good options to show them, then it would be nice to have a way not to display anything, instead of displaying the exact “Some long string” again.

Especially so if “Some long string” is not on my list of options, but will rather be created once the user submits the form, for example.
