Material: select: remove support for md-multiple

[bmbarker90]

Actual Behavior:

• What is the issue? * When the expression in ng-multiple evaluates to true, md-select-value updates appropriately but md-select-menu does not change to a multi-select.
• What is the expected behavior? When ng-multiple evaluates to true, it should change md-select-menu to a multi-select.

CodePen (or steps to reproduce the issue): *

• CodePen Demo which shows your issue: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/Zpyzyq?editors=1010

Your code is working with multiple select with no checkbox but you can select items same with the checkbox. I'm using chrome Version 53.0.2785.143 m in windows 10.

Right, but checkboxes should be showing. If I just hard-code multiple="true" in the html, then checkboxes do show for each option

Can confirm this. @topherfangio Do you want to take a look at this?

Seems to be a major bug.

ngMultiple was dropped from angular core in 1.2.0, though, because it didn't work:

(We hit this problem also, but can work-around it.)

Checkbox isn't visible in my md-select either. I have hardcoded the multiple=true

I am going to use this issue to track the removal of support for ng-multiple in AngularJS Material, so that we can match up with AngularJS 1.2.0+. This will be considered a breaking change, so it is targeted to 1.2.0.

Tracking the evaluation of the argument passed into multiple and ng-multiple will be handled in https://github.com/angular/material/issues/3068.

Our version of ng-multiple has been changed to md-multiple in 1.2.0. We could consider removing it completely in the future.
