interact bug -- drop down menu default doesn't show default value

[williamstein]

@interact
def _(f = (33,[1..100])):
    pass

The drop down should be set to 33 but isn't.

Attachment: sage-2530.patch.gz

The attached patch fixes some minor issues with selectors with interact:

1. the default for a drop-down menu is now correct,

2. buttons with strings are no longer have quotes,

3. the default value for selectors is the actual value rather than the index into the list of values, which is much much more natural.

I tested this, and it looks good to me.

Timothy,

for the record: Please doctest patches you review and clearly indicate what you doctested, i.e. all of Sage, some subdirectory and so on. Applying this patch causes a doctest failure, see #2538.

Cheers,

Michael
