 Editor: Add support for select elements to theme.json.

 Adds support for the select element in theme.json so that theme builders
 and extenders can be style select elements consistently.

 We are targeting the select HTML element rather than adding a CSS class,
 as we do for other elements that theme.json supports. This commit adds no
 extra styling unless a theme opts in to use this and the specificity of
 any generated CSS with the element is 0.

 See original Gutenberg PR:
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/70379.

 Example usage:

 {{{
         "elements": {
                 "select": {
                         "color": {
                                 "text": "red",
                                 "background": "blue"
                         }
                 }
         }
 }}}
