This PR addresses the issue where calling .focus() on a disabled input still triggers a focus event in jQuery 3.7+, which is inconsistent with native behavior.

Changes Made:

  1. Added a flag in trigger.js to prevent focus events from firing on disabled inputs.
  2. Ensures .focus() on a disabled element does nothing, matching native JavaScript behavior.

Impact:

  1. Fixes an inconsistency without affecting other focusable elements.
  2. No breaking changes.

Fixes #5620

I’m sorry, I mixed up PRs, let me reopen this one.

I don’t think the changes will be that small, though; we also need to handle at least blur, get new tests added and clearly state which cases we want to support and which we give up on for now - e.g., there are many quirks with focus & click propagation in elements inside disabled fieldsets.
