**children**
Function that will be called when each option is rendered.
It will be passed (option, index, options, state) where option
is the option to render, index is the index of that option in the
options array, and state is an object with
{ active, disabled, selected } keys indicating the current state
of the option.
```

as the 'value' to indicate which options are disabled.
```

object
]
```
**disabledKey**
When the options array contains objects, this property indicates how
to determine which options should be disabled. If a string is
provided, it is used as the key for each item object and if that key
returns truthy, the option is disabled. If a function is provided, it is
called with the option and the return value determines if the option
is disabled.

When the options array contains objects, this property indicates how
to determine the label of each option. If a string is
provided, it is used as the key to retrieve each option's label.

to lazily fetch more from the server only when needed.
