[Select] Add virtualization support

[ItayTur]

Material UI Select component is lagging when having more than 200 options. I try to work around it using react-virtual npm. this should solve the issue because it follows the Select rule of children can be MenuItem Only, since it provides a hook and not a wrapping component, like in react-window.

Current Behavior 😯

The overflowen options are not rendered when scrolled to them.

Expected Behavior 🤔

It should render the other options, based on the view location.

Steps to Reproduce 🕹

https://codesandbox.io/s/lucid-ritchie-j2c13?file=/src/Demo.tsx

Steps:

1. Open the select by clicking it.
2. scroll to the bottom.

Context 🔦

My app has dropdowns with over 2000 options in it. If the select is lagging, I can't use it.

There are a few problems with your implementation.

1. The ref is put on the wrong element, it should be on the MenuList
2. There should be an inner div between the elements as far as I could see on the demos - please verify if it is really required
3. The problem of why it isn't working is because the ref you are propagating to the hook is a DOM node that is created only after the list is shown (the select is opened), so it is basically not defined at the start. You should use a callback ref there and store the node in state. See https://codesandbox.io/s/hardcore-margulis-pucxg?file=/src/Demo.tsx

thx for the response. Your solution is progress, yet with still few issues:

1. the select stop working - selecting any item doesn't fire onChange with the right value. I think it's because the Select children must be material ui MenuItem or Array of MenuItem
2. if i drop the inner div and move the height style to the menu-props, it shows the selected value but the input is flickering on each scroll, and no new options are rendered : https://codesandbox.io/s/silly-benji-zbd6u?file=/src/Demo.tsx:577-714

I haven't used the library much I must be honest, so I am pretty sure it needs more work. Also, take a look at https://mui.com/components/autocomplete/#virtualization for inspiration too.

thank you but it got to be the select, i can't use the autocomplete.

[mnajdova]

Yeah, it's unfortunate that the select uses the React.cloneElement, which is basically the problem we have here. I am marking it as a duplicate of #14943. This component will probably be re-written from scratch. cc @michaldudak
