[Accessibility] Focus lost/reset on locked account screen when switching from master password to windows hello option

[patrickhlauke]

Steps To Reproduce

1. Have the vault locked
2. Go to the "Unlock with master password" view
3. Using the keyboard, set focus to "Unlock with Windows Hello" and activate the button

Expected Result

Once the view changes to the Windows Hello option, focus should be managed - ideally, focus should move programmatically to the (newly shown / actually actionable "Unlock with Windows Hello" button).

Actual Result

The view changes, but focus is lost/reset. Tabbing shows that focus is right back at the start of the window, as the first tab stop is the account switcher button.

Video: Windows/NVDA (using screen reader mainly for clarity/making it obvious where the focus lands) - first, switching from the Windows Hello view to the "Unlock with Master Password" view ... notice how focus is correctly placed programmatically to the password input. Then, showing what happens when switching from the master password view to the "Unlock with Windows Hello" version ... focus is lost, and the next Tab focuses the account switcher.
