Calcite-components: Enhancement: Add a method to set focus on the calcite-filter for a pick list with filter enabled

[ethanbdev]

Description

It would be nice to have a method on the pick list component to set focus on the filter when enabled. Right now the setFocus focuses on the pick list itself. This way we can programmatically take the user directly to the search box to immediately start typing.

Acceptance Criteria

A method callable on the pick list to focus the underlying calcite-filter instead of the pick list items.

Relevant Info

Which Component

calcite-pick-list / calcite-filter

Example Use Case

We use a pick-list as a field select in a popover. Feedback we have received is to immediately be able to start typing in the filter on the popup opening, saving the user a click.

I expected that I could push the drop down > opens the pop over > I can type and it would search. It seems like I need to explicitly click in the search and then type.

@ethanbdev Could you help verify this one? 🙇🏼‍♂️

Looks good to me!

My only comment would be to document that "filter" is an option for the focusId argument.
