Search Issue Basic : Action cannot be performed by Keyboard alone.

Issue Summary

There is no way to perform the function on elements such as "Resolution Date", "Label" etc using only the keyboard.

Location of the element: Present in the Main content

Steps to reproduce: When options are selected in the "More" button expanded section, this issue is present on the screen.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Navigate to the Jira dashboard page.
2. Navigate to the "Issues" menu button in the header section & activate it.
3. Activate the “Search for issues ” link.
4. Navigate to the Search section and open the "More" dropdown button
5. Search for the "Resolution Date", "Label", etc option and select it.
6. Navigate to the "Resolution Date", "Label", etc icon to select.

Actual Results

On the search page, when the "Resolution Date", "Label", etc, option is selected from the "More" dropdown menu, the "Resolution Date", "Label", etc,  receives focus but the elements cannot be activated via "enter key". The "Resolution Date", "Label", etc element is available when selected with the mouse. 

This makes it keyboard-only and Screen reader users challenging to select "Resolution Date", "Label", etc while searching for an issue.

Expected Results

Following are the expected keyboard interactions.

• Functionality MUST be available using the keyboard unless the functionality cannot be accomplished in any known way using a keyboard.
• The elements should get activated with the "Enter" key.
• The dates inside the modal should be able to receive keyboard focus.
• The focus should go back to the date input field after the date is selected.
