Accessibility: Console keyboard focus is trapped #11522

Description

Problem

The focus state is trapped in any of our code editors.

  • Users can't use the usual tab / shift-tab to move throughout the form because that's use for indentation.
  • Users also can't tab through the options underneath the "Wrench" icon menu.

Proposed solution

The code editors we use should set the "ESC" key to unfocus the cursor on the editor. Futher, we should use an advanced settings accessibility toggle within Kibana to turn off indentation tabbing if set to True.
