Special Thanks

Thanks to Matt Elen for contributing this version!

A Vue 3 upgrade of @shentao's vue-mulitselect component. The idea is that when you upgrade to Vue 3, you can swap the two components out, and everything should simply work. Feel free to check out our story of how we upgraded our product to Vue 3 on our blog at suade.org
