There are already specs [1] for this and they're passing. I modified
tests data to make one of the specs to fail [2] and fixed it in master
[3]. The problem was not with SelectList#select_value, but in
Element#to_subtype instead.

There is also a comment "deprecate?" for #select_value specs in
WatirSpec. I have to agree with that comment - i'd deprecate and
remove that method too and use SelectList#select instead, which also
selects by value automatically.
