fix(core/mat-option): don't remove aria-selected from deselected options

For mat-option, set `aria-selected="false"` on deselected options that
are selectable. Conforms with [WAI ARIA Listbox authoring practices guide](
https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/listbox/), which says to always
include aria-selected attribute on options that are selectable. Fix issue where
voiceover reads every option as "selected" (#25736).
