Add displayValue and change selection and value

CHANGELOG.md

@@ -46,6 +46,12 @@ All notable changes for each version of this project will be documented in this
 - `IgxGrid`, `IgxTreeGrid`, `IgxHierarchicalGrid`
     - The `draggable` attribute is no longer required to be set on interactable elements, if a column header is templated and the Column Moving is enabled in order for handlers for any event to be triggered. Now `draggable='false'` can be used as an addition if the user shouldn't be able to drag a column by that element, but even if omitted `click` events for example will trigger now.
     - **Behavioral Change** When there are already grouped columns, the group drop area now shows after dragging of a column starts and not when only click actions are performed.
+- `IgxCombo`, `IgxSimpleCombo`:
+    - **Breaking Change**  The `selection` property returns an array of the selected items even when a value key is provided and the `value` property returns an array of value keys instead of display keys. Automatic migrations are available and will be applied on `ng update`.
+
+### New Features
+- `IgxCombo`, `IgxSimpleCombo`
+    - Added new property `displayValue` that returns array of display keys.
