Pull request overview
This pull request fixes a critical performance issue (issue #16664) where repeatedly clicking between multiple igx-simple-combo components caused CPU usage to increase and eventually freeze the browser. The root cause was a focus loop introduced in PR #12170, where the combo input was always refocused when the dropdown closed, even when the close was triggered by user interaction (like clicking on another combo).
Changes:
- Modified the
dropdown.closingevent handler to only callthis.comboInput.focus()when the combo is closed programmatically (when!args.event), preventing focus loops when users click between multiple combos - Added an explanatory comment documenting why focus is only applied for programmatic closes

Closes #16664
Only a programmatically closing combo should be focused. Initially it was like that but this PR forces
this.comboInput.focus();in both cases - when it's closed programmatically and due to user interaction:#12170
