Before autofilling a username or password field, we want to determine the field's focusability by calling the API Services.focus.elementIsFocusable.

Note: This only partially prevents filling input fields that the user is not able to interact with neither.

One issue that gets also addressed with this change is that the login manager is partially prevented from autofilling invisible input fields (see Bug 1783962, Bug 1247245, ... ) - with emphasis on the word partially.

The same approach is also considered for address and credit card autofill (see Bug 1847687).

Summary: Use Services.focus.elementIsFocusable to only fill out focusable username and password fields → Determine a username and password field's focusability before autofilling it.
