Pull Request Overview
This PR adds a trap_focus() method to DOMNode that allows restricting focus navigation (via Tab key) to a specific container and its descendants. When focus trapping is enabled on a container that contains the currently focused widget, the focus chain is limited to only that container's children.
- Added
DOMNode.trap_focus()method to enable/disable focus trapping - Modified
Screen.focus_chainproperty to respect focus trapping by finding the nearest ancestor with_trap_focus=True - Added comprehensive test coverage for the trap focus functionality

Adds ability to "trap" the focus. So that tabbing through controls is restricted to the given container. This can be a requirement for something like a modal dialog, which doesn't use a modal screen.
