Broken focus after upgrading to jQuery 3.6.0

Hello, after updating jQuery to 3.6.0, focus does not work after opening and you have to manually click on the search box.

Due to the lack of response and free time, I decided to look for the cause of the problem myself.
The solution in my case was to comment out 2 lines. Based on version 1.8.7 these are lines 1002 and 1060 containing:

1002:
this.search_field.focus();
1060:
return this.search_field.focus();

After commenting them out, focus works fine.

A similar fragment is also found in lines 929 and 1111, but I haven't noticed that 929 and 1111 are blocking the focus.

Of course, treat it as a temporary solution and when an official new version that fixes the problem appears, then update chosen.
