We currently calculate an implicit selected state for any selectable element that is focused. However, the ARIA spec says we should only do this for option, tab and treeitem. In particular, we should not do this for gridcell.

Previously, we did this for any focused, selectable item.
However, the ARIA spec says we should only do this for option, tab and treeitem.
In particular, we shouldn't do this for gridcell, as this can expose gridcells as selected when they aren't.
