The selection-change event now includes a `trigger` property in its detail, allowing apps to distinguish between selection sources: - "typeahead" - auto-selection from typing - "click" - user clicked an item - "keyboard" - keyboard navigation (arrow keys, home, end, page up/down)

Replace the inline string union for the `trigger` property of the selection-change event with a proper public enum `ComboBoxSelectionChangeTrigger` (Typeahead | Click | Keyboard), matching the convention used by other UI5 enums. Add Cypress tests covering each trigger source.

- Update test page triggerColors keys and labels to PascalCase
("Typeahead" / "Keyboard" / "Click") to match the public enum.
- Remove leftover "enter" reference from the test page; Enter does
not fire selection-change.
- Clarify in JSDoc that Enter does not fire selection-change but
the change event instead.

The selection-change event now includes a
triggerproperty in its detail, allowing apps to distinguish between selection sources:When enabled, typing does not auto-select matching items. Selection only occurs on explicit user action (Enter key, click, or keyboard navigation). This gives apps full control over when selection is applied.
noAutoSelection behavior:
Typing: no selection-change (typeahead doesn't select)
Arrow keys: selection-change fires (navigating selects items)
Enter: change event fires (confirms the selection)
Click: selection-change fires
