Accordion : activate method doesn't take into account the current state (active or hidden) of the content part

Description

The activate method doesn't take into account the current state (active or hidden) of the content part.

Example : 

$(document).ready(function () {  
  $("#accordion1").accordion({
    collapsible: true,
    active: 0  });
  $("#accordion1").accordion("activate", 0);
  });

Should result in content part #0 being active. It's not the case.

The method name and behavior may be confusing, but the behavior isn't wrong. It's not obvious whether activate is a shortcut to the active option or whether it is meant to mimic the user manually activating the panel. The actual behavior is to mimic the user activating a panel. Changing this behavior would be a backward incompatible change and this method is being deprecated in 1.9. Therefore, no change will be made.
