Subject: [PATCH] cmdpal: Support Enter key to submit FormContent inputs

When a user presses Enter inside a single-line TextBox within an
Adaptive Card form, find the first Submit or Execute action on the
card and trigger form submission with the current input values.

This enables keyboard-only form workflows (e.g. login/unlock forms
in extensions) without requiring users to click the submit button.

Multiline text inputs (AcceptsReturn=true) are excluded so that
Enter still inserts newlines in those fields.

Fixes #46003
