makeSelector(selector, name, description,
  supported = getAvailableRepresentations(), supported.objectives,
  supported.opt.direction = "minimize")

`selector`	[`function`] Actual selection operator.
`name`	[`character(1)`] Name of the selector.
`description`	[`character(1)`] Short description of how the selector works.
`supported`	[`character`] Vector of strings/names of supported parameter representations. For example 'permutation', 'float', 'binary'.
`supported.objectives`	[`character`] At least one of “single-objective” or “multi-objective”.
`supported.opt.direction`	[`character(1-2)`] Does the selector work for maximization tasks xor minimization tasks or both? Default is “`minimize`”, which means that the selector selects in favour of low fitness values.
