Add defineExpose to Treeselect component

[elizabeth011685]

Integrated defineExpose to the Treeselect component to expose the clear method. This change facilitates external access to the method, improving component flexibility and reusability.

Wouldn't it be a case of exposing the instance?

I think we should look for a better way to expose API. For instance - one possible solution would be to return an API object on @ready event.

@elizabeth011685 @Alexbrazdasilva

<tree-select @ready="handleOnReady" />
// ...

const treeselectApi = ref(null);

const handleOnReady = (api) => { 
  treeselectApi.value = api
}

// ...
const myMethod = () => {
  // ...
  treeselectApi.value.clear()
}
