Attachment: Clicking "Go back one page" on 'about:logins' doesn't update the selected login, despite URL changes

[Affected Versions]

• Firefox 115.0.2 (64-bit)

[Affected Platforms]

• Windows 11 x64

[Preconditions]:

• Have at least two saved logins.

[Steps to reproduce]:

1. Go to "about:logins".
2. Select the second saved login.
3. Click the "Go back one page" button.

[Expected result]:

• The previous saved login should be selected.

[Actual result]:

• From Step 1, the URL in the address bar is "about:logins#%7Bd7c281ec-eeff-4684-bda9-0dba9c5739bb%7D." and the first saved login is automatically selected by default.
• From Step 2, the URL in the address bar is changes into "about:logins#%7Bc39b7566-ee01-434b-9b67-b02d87ddf1ca%7D."
• From Step 3, the URL in the address bar is changed into the previous one but the selected login is still the second one.

We can leverage the hashchange event here. Will probably want to register a handler for this event on login-list. We can use the new URL from the change event and use that to query the list item, which can be used to call setListItemAsSelected.
