Description
#### Bug, feature request, or proposal:
Feature request
#### What is the expected behavior?
It would be nice to have option to disable animation for a specific overlay. In our case we need to disable animation of overlay of mat-select growing wider.
#### What is the current behavior?
Nothing can stop thins animation normally, there is no way to prevent it with css and using @.disabled on overlayContainer through renderer disables animations of everything.
#### What is the use-case or motivation for changing an existing behavior?
We need to mat-select according to spec, where dropdown list has to be as wide as input itself, but animation always glitches it for a moment.
#### Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by examining the Angular Material mat-select overlay and its animation behavior, using the reported overlayContainer workaround as context. Define how a per-overlay animation-disable option would differ from disabling animations globally, and verify that mat-select can match the required width without affecting other overlays.
