Console errors when using ca_fdSelectOptionByIndex or ca_fdSelectOption

Issue/Introduction

After latest update to 17.2.5, I noticed that when you use some functions you get an error in the browser console.
To reproduce it's quite easy, you just need a select field and try to change this selection with the function. 
The selection occurs, but an error is raised in the console.

The following error appears after using ca_fdSelectOptionByIndex or ca_fdSelectOption:



id=1580908829072_form1_sel_1 TypeError: Cannot convert undefined or null to object
    at Function.keys (<anonymous>)
    at gA.scope.pickSelectedIndex (SelectDirective.js:707)
    at gA.scope.selectOptionByIndexAPI (SelectDirective.js:763)
    at window.ca_fdSelectOptionByIndex (DualListAPIs.js:157)
    at Object.jstest (eval at switchFdScope (formdesigner.js:528), <anonymous>:5:7)
    at eval (eval at evalJsFunction (formdesigner.js:615), <anonymous>:1:10)
    at Object.evalJsFunction (formdesigner.js:615)
    at gA.scope.bindFieldEvent (RadioButtonDirective.js:150)
    at fn (eval at compile (angular.js:1), <anonymous>:4:554)
    at gK (angular.js:1)
 
The select box item is selected as expected but the error still appears in the console.


Steps to reproduce:
Able to reproduce in r17.2 RU4, RU5 and RU6.
1. Log into Catalog
2. Click F12 > Console tab 
3. Click on radio button to trigger function which uses ca_fdSelectOptionByIndex

 }
}
