Describe the bug
When using the dropdown input type in the DSpace 7.6 submission form, it is not possible to jump to a value in the list by typing a letter. For example, I want to jump to the Journal Article value by pressing the letter "j" or "J":

dspace7-dropdown.mp4

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Configure a field in the submission form to use a dropdown type with a value pairs, for example the types.
  2. Try to type a letter to jump to an item in the list

Expected behavior
Being able to navigate the dropdown using the keyboard is a feature of native HTML <select> elements in browsers (see MDN docs with example).

In DSpace 6 the dropdown type actually presents as a list, but we can navigate the list using the keyboard:

dspace6-dropdown.mp4

Flagged this as an accessibility bug. Pulling this over to the 7.6.x maintenance board as we must ensure every field is keyboard accessible.
