qsm-odoo e40cfe8495 [FIX] website: prevent toolbar flickering when entering edit mode
Steps to reproduce the bug (starting from saas-16.4 only!):
- Go to the website app
- Enter edit mode
=> Bug: the editor toolbar appears for a few ms, then disappears.

This bug occurs since [1], whose original commit was actually merged in
16.0 with [2]. The reason the bug only appears in saas-16.4 and not 16.0
is because of [3].

Commits [1] and [2] change the elements that are considered "tab-able"
and thus the elements that can be auto-focused by the `useActiveElement`
hook. That hook is actually used when we enter edit mode since [4], as a
way to declare the editor as the active element so that keyboard
shortcuts work (as indicated by the related commit).

What actually happens thanks to the hook is that once we enter edit mode
the "Block" button of the right panel is focused. This is because it is
considered to be the first "tab-able" element (with or without [1]/[2]).
Then keyboard shortcuts work as expected as the right panel is focused.

However, since [3], the `useActiveElement` hook is called "too soon".
Indeed the right panel is not actually inside the "auto-focused" editor
container yet**. The result is that what is now "auto-focused" is the
editor toolbar***. Before [1], the element in the toolbar that was
focused was an invisible one, so no bug appeared. Since [1], we only
auto-focus visible elements... so we now focus a visible element in the
editor toolbar, making it visible during editor instantiation.

This commit fixes the issue independently of [3] (which is why this
targets 16.0: to consolidate the codebases). Actually, the use of the
`useActiveElement` hook added by [4] is useless. It was fixing the
issue at the time, but the real solution was to do what was done since
at [5]. Indeed, the keyboard shortcuts were not working because the
backend navbar was still visible (even if outside of the viewport) so it
was its keyboard shortcuts that took precedence. Since [5], the use of
`useActiveElement` actually has not benefit anymore. The editor is part
of the backend UI, the backend UI is still focused after entering edit
mode, shortcuts targeting the editor panel are thus working naturally.
Removing the use of the `activeElement` hook only has one side effect:
the "Block" button of the right panel is not auto-focused anymore...
which is not needed.

Notes:

- The `useActiveElement` hook also has another purpose: allowing cycling
  using tab and shift-tab, it should work naturally as with the backend
  UI anyway but mainly: tab and shift-tab do not seem to be working with
  the editor UI anyway.

- Another hint that [4] was not right way to go is that this is the only
  use of the `useActiveElement` hook in the whole codebase, except for
  the framework use for dialogs.

- ** That should maybe be solved on its own, although maybe it is not
  important and risky at best.

- *** The editor toolbar should not even be instantiated that way in the
  first place since it will be attached to the right panel later... but
  that is another issue.
