False positive? Ensure elements that have scrollable content are accessible by keyboard

[jzazo]

Describe the bug

I am running the accessibility report extension and I get flagged an error: scrollable-region-focusable: Elements with scrollable content must be accessible by keyboard. It affects the search box, enabled via plugin.

Path: .md-search__scrollwrap

Snippet:
- <div class="md-search__scrollwrap"> <div class="md-search-result" data-md-component="search-result">
- <div class="md-search-result__meta">Type to start searching</div> <ol class="md-search-result__list" role="presentation"></ol> </div> 

Fix ONE of the following:
- Element should have focusable content
- Element should be focusable

Adding a tabindex="0" to the div section <div class="md-search__scrollwrap"> removes the error.

However, I created this issue in the material-mkdocs project and you can navigate search results with the keyboard, and the author claims that the flag is a false positive.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to https://microsoft.github.io/rats/
2. Run the accessibility-insights-web extension. The error relates to the search box. If you search commands you can scroll through results, so the error is probably a false positive.

Expected behavior

If this is a false positive, an error should not be flagged.
