Dropdown: optionValue is ignored if "value" is passed in through arbitrary objects

[hchen2017]

Describe the bug

Hello,

I'm not sure if this is expected behavior, but it seems that optionValue is being ignored if the arbitrary objects passed into options contains a value key.

I believe this issue is stemming from the fact that the entire arbitrary object is not being passed back in general from the onChange function.

My stackblitz fork demonstrates that only the value is being returned and not the entire object.

The reason why I believe this is an issue/bug is because onChange is expected to return the entire object since the type of the state variable selectedCity is the entire City object.

This is the line of code which I believe is causing this issue: https://github.com/primefaces/primereact/blob/master/components/lib/dropdown/Dropdown.js#L883

Please let me know if my interpretation is incorrect
