Autocomplete doesn't work well in Firefox or Safari

For example, I'd type "historical", and nothing seems to happen. If I then delete the last "l", the dropdown appears.

It also doesn't seem to work properly in Safari, I see the same behavior of having to delete a character before anything autocompletes.

@KyleJu have you worked on the autocomplete feature at all, or is this all untouched since Luke implemented it?

My first guess is that it has to do when this line of code is reached (or not): https://github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt.fyi/blob/f1085b05b601f65b4d171e022433723bd39307b3/webapp/components/test-search.js#L555
