Subject: [PATCH] Make DataListIndicatorElement not focusable

DataListIndicatorElement (the UA shadow DOM element backing
::-webkit-calendar-picker-indicator on <input list>) inherited from
HTMLDivElement without overriding SupportsFocus(), unlike other inner
text control elements. When styled with overflow: scroll, it became a
focusable scroll container and could be focused (e.g. by dialog
focusing steps). Removing it when the <datalist> lost its options
would then synchronously fire a blur event during
IdTargetObserverRegistry::NotifyObservers().

Override DataListIndicatorElement::SupportsFocus() to return
FocusableState::kNotFocusable so the internal indicator element cannot
be focused.
