Add a loader prop for the Select components in v5.4.0

[aakankshabhende]

Describe the enhancement or change
Currently, we don't have a loader prop for Select components in v5.4.0 due to which we have to manually add a spinner in the component while the data is getting fetched.

@aakankshabhende here is the example of how to implement the view more functionality with our select component. https://www.patternfly.org/components/menus/select#with-view-more.

Does this solve yu\our use case?

Actually, I wanted something similar to the LoadingVariant in PF4 where the loader was besides the placeholder.

@aakankshabhende can you please link the specific example. I can't seem to find it.

Sorry for the late response. We get the loader when the value is selected and getting updated. Please check the attached video

Hey @aakankshabhende . Can you confirm whether the behavior from your video above was a feature in PatternFly 4? It looks like the loadingVariant prop in v4 simply rendered a SelectOption with either a spinner or some text (depending what was passed to the prop), which would be similar to how the "view more" examples behave.

Or was this a new feature request to have a spinner as part of the toggle?
