Spinbox.selection_element() raises TclError: expected integer but got "none" while it should return the currently selected element according to the docstring.

I think this issue comes from the Spinbox.selection method which tries to convert to int the output of self.tk.call((self._w, 'selection', 'element')) while it returns a string ("none", "buttonup" or "buttondown").
