[P2] Handle native anchor Enter without also invoking legacy keyboard activation

Changing initial/ref focus from the li to its anchor exposes the native Enter click to MenuItem.onInternalKeyDown, which already calls both onClick and onItemClick. Chrome then dispatches the anchor's native click, invoking both callbacks again. With multiple, one Enter selects and immediately deselects the same item.

Reproduction on this exact head and merge preview: render <Menu multiple ref={ref} items={[{ key: 'first', label: <a href="#destination">Link</a> }]} onClick={spy} />, call ref.current.focus(), and press Enter with a real keyboard driver. The spy records keydown, then click, and no item remains selected. Base records one keydown and leaves one selected item (but has the original missing navigation bug).

The same double-activation already exists on base after arrow navigation focuses an anchor; this PR additionally exposes it on first/ref focus. Please let native anchor activation happen once while retaining legacy Enter activation for non-link items, and cover both paths plus multiple selection with native-key tests.

避免一次焦点转移触发两次 onFocus。

当 <li> 本身获得焦点且包含 a[href] 时，处理器会先调用 onFocus，再聚焦链接。链接的焦点事件会冒泡到同一处理器，并再次调用 onFocus。请跳过 <li> 焦点事件上的回调，让链接的焦点事件只通知调用方一次。

🐛 建议修复 
   const onInternalFocus: React.FocusEventHandler<HTMLLIElement> = e => {
     onActive(eventKey);
-    onFocus?.(e);

     if (e.target === elementRef.current) {
       const link = elementRef.current?.querySelector<HTMLAnchorElement>('a[href]');
       if (link) {
         link.focus();
+        return;
       }
     }
+
+    onFocus?.(e);
   };

Review comment at @src/MenuItem.tsx around lines 205 - 208:
Update onInternalFocus so it skips calling onFocus for the li focus event when
it finds and focuses an a[href] descendant; return immediately after focusing
the link. Let the link’s bubbled focus event invoke onFocus once, while
preserving the existing callback behavior when no link is focused.

[P2] Preserve the caller's scroll decision when redirecting item focus

The extra link.focus() starts a second focus operation with default scrolling. A caller using the public ref.current.findItem({ key: 'first' }).focus({ preventScroll: true }) can therefore no longer keep the viewport in place when that item contains a link.

In a real Chrome page with the menu below the viewport (top 1600px), starting at scrollY=0, base keeps scrollY=0; this head and the merge preview jump to scrollY=1267. Direct focus also invokes the item's onFocus twice (li, then anchor), rather than once on base. MenuRef.focus({ preventScroll: true }) still preserves scrolling because it passes the option directly to the anchor.

Please preserve the initial focus operation's scroll decision during this redirection (for example, prevent scrolling on the secondary focus) and add coverage for direct item focus with preventScroll, alongside the existing MenuRef focus test.
