[EuiCombobox][COGNITION]: Combo boxes should open on user interaction instead of `focus` event
Description
A customer raised this as an issue with our sitewide search in Kibana. When users click or keypress navigate to our sitewide search, the combobox opens automatically. This is an issue with Success Criterion 3.2.1: On Focus because we are making a significant change of page context.
Suggested change
Can we explore changing the listbox show event to listen for keypresses like DOWN_ARROW or letters when users start typing? This might be a breaking change item, so happy to discuss further.

👋 Hi there - this issue hasn't had any activity in 6 months. If the EUI team has not explicitly expressed that this is something on our roadmap, it's unlikely that we'll pick this issue up. We would sincerely appreciate a PR/community contribution if this is something that matters to you! If not, and there is no further activity on this issue for another 6 months (i.e. it's stale for over a year), the issue will be auto-closed.
❌ Per our previous message, this issue is auto-closing after having been open and inactive for a year. If you strongly feel this is still a high-priority issue, or are interested in contributing, please leave a comment or open a new issue linking to this one for context.
We plan to address this when we work on https://github.com/elastic/eui/issues/2841
