Testcafe: Make pressKey to work for elements within shadowDOM

[ls84]

Are you requesting a feature or reporting a bug?

I am selecting an element like this
const nameInput = Selector(() => component.shadow.querySelector('.nameInput'))
It worked fine if the element is outside of shadow root, like a normal element.

What is the current behavior?

When I am testing
await t.typeText(nameInput, 'apple') .pressKey('backspace')
nothing happens

I am on version 0.20.0

What is the expected behavior?

How would you reproduce the current behavior (if this is a bug)?

Provide the test code and the tested page URL (if applicable)

Hi @ls84, I've reproduced the issue. I'll notify you when we will publish a new version with the fix to NPM.

Neither hover nor mouseclicks work combined with shadow dom. Any progress regarding this would be appreciated.

@raphaellueckl the initial issue is only about the pressKey action. We would like to research your issue in detail. Please create a separate bug report using this form https://github.com/DevExpress/testcafe/issues/new?template=bug-report.md
Please also provide us with a sample demonstrating the issue.

I'm running into the same issue with .pressKey('enter') on an input within a shadow DOM. Any progress/updates on this?
