Submitting search form (mini) with enter key fires event handlers bound by jquery twice

[koenner01]

When submitting the search form in the header with the enter key on the keyboard, event handlers that were bound to the form submit (through jQuery) are fired twice.

Preconditions

1. PHP 7.0
2. CE 2.2 (also tested 2.1.11)

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a javascript which adds an event handler to the form submit

$('#search_mini_form').on('submit', function(e) {
    console.log('listening for form submit');
});

2. Submit the search form in the header with a value by pressing the enter button

Expected result

1. Our created listener is only fired once

Actual result

1. Listener is fired twice

In module-search/view/frontend/web/form-mini.js the _onKeyDown function is adding a trigger to the enter key

case $.ui.keyCode.ENTER:
    this.searchForm.trigger('submit');
    break;

This trigger is causing the submit event to be fired twice

workaround can be to use the vanilla javascript addEventListener functionality
