Let keyboard users skip over RTE/MD formatting header

What does this MR do and why?

Add a button that only shows on focus at the start of the markdown and rich text formatting header, which when clicked will move focus to the input itself. This allows a keyboard user to move focus from outside of the editor to the actual text input in two keystrokes, instead of the 15+ necessary if focus is moved through each formatting button.
