Description:
------------
When using 'select' elements in a form, after loading the form object with default values, loaded value is not selected automatically. It worked with version 3.2.4pl1 and earlier, but with 3.2.5 it doesn't.
Same problem when select box is a multiple one. It should select selected values.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$values = array('val_1' => 'Value One',
'val_2' => 'Value Two');

$form =& new HTML_QuickForm('test');
$sel =& $form->addElement('select','loadedValue',
'Select Something');
$sel->load($values);
$form->setDefaults(array('loadedValue' => 'val_2'));
$form->display();
?>

Expected result:
----------------
on HTML display:

<SELECT name='loadedValue' ...>
<OPTION value='val_1'>Value One</OPTION>
<OPTION value='val_2' SELECTED>Value Two</OPTION>
</SELECT>

Actual result:
--------------
On HTML display:

<SELECT name='loadedValue' ...>
<OPTION value='val_1'>Value One</OPTION>
<OPTION value='val_2'>Value Two</OPTION>
</SELECT>
