Updated handleEscapeKey() function.

  1. Now we use capturing phase in addEventListener that allow us to stopping propagation early in the event flow.
  2. Then we check route and if it fast or slow we stop propagation for prevent keyux jump, because for add and categories routes is different flow and we need jump back to list + close panel, but for slow and fast routes we need just close panel.

I changed the conditions for stopping event propagation:

  1. Added role checking - this allows us to avoid unexpected jumps to the side menu if the user clicks on a list item with the mouse and then presses Escape. Now, in this case, the focus will move to the clicked list item.
  2. Added tagName checking to prevent jumping back if the user clicks on a list item, then clicks somewhere else on the screen, and then presses Escape to close the side panel.
