Begin making the Tooltip Menu keyboard accessible

See original GitHub issue

STR:

Go an add-on detail page
Click on Read all reviews to see the list of reviews
When the page loads, use only the tab key to navigate the page
When you tab to the flag link press the space bar or enter key to flag a review
Press tab to navigate the menu (this does not work)

The TooltipMenu component added in https://github.com/mozilla/addons-frontend/issues/3534 is not fully keyboard accessible. In the interest of preserving forward momentum, let’s try and tackle this in a separate issue.

@kumar303 : I will open another bug, but I think that the root problem is the same(drop down menu should not be left when navigating with keyboard inside it). I agree that this can be closed since the menu is accessible now via keyboard. Marking this as verified.
