Backlog : Focus moves inappropriately

Issue Summary

When the users close the modal dialog the focus moves inappropriately instead of moving to the triggering element.

Note: Similar issue was observed with the "Edit" and "Delete" Modal dialog.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Navigate to the Projects in the header section.
2. Navigate and activate any "Scrum" project.
3. Navigate and activate the "Backlog" from the Left navigation.
4. Navigate to "View summary of assigned work" button and activate it
5. Observe modal dialog gets added on the page.
6. Navigate to the “Close” button in the modal dialog box and activate it.
7. Observe the focus moves inappropriately.

Actual Result

When the users activate the “Close” button in the modal dialog (that becomes available on activating the "View summary of assigned work" button), the focus moves to the top of the page instead of moving to the triggering element.

As a result, keyboard-only and screen reader users need to pass the extra content to reach the desired element.

Expected Result

Ensure that the keyboard focus moves to the triggering element when the modal dialog gets closed on the page.
