     # code...
      echo "<option value=".$value['city_id'].">".$value['city_name']."</option>";

Well, then simply just make it an extra option and remove includeSelectAllOption. When user clicks on "select all", deselect all other options and keep "select all".

var handler = function(){
  let val = $(this).val();
  if(val === null) return;
  val.forEach(function(value){
    if(value == "all"){
        $("#change_city option:selected").prop("selected", false);
        $('#change_city option[value="all"]').prop('selected', true); 
    }
  });
}

$("#change_city").on("change", handler);

#change_city {
  height: 150px;
  }

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select class="form-control" id="change_city" multiple="multiple">
  <option value="1">City 1</option>";
  <option value="2">City 2</option>";
  <option value="3">City 3</option>";
  <option value="4">City 4</option>";
  <option value="all">Select All</option>";
</select>
