feat(select): add ability to cycle through options with arrow keys wh…

…en closed

* Adds the ability for users to select options by focusing on a closed `md-select` and pressing the up/down arrow keys.
* Fixes a bug that prevents the selection from going to the first item in a `ListKeyManager`, if there were no previously-selected items.
* Adds an extra null check to the `FocusKeyManager` to avoid issues where the focused item is cleared.

Fixes angular#2990.
