fix(material/autocomplete): activate first enabled option with autoActiveFirstOption (#21513)

Currently the autocomplete trigger will activate the first option when `autoActiveFirstOption`,
no matter whether it is disabled. These changes use a different API which will allow us to
pick the first enabled option.

Fixes #21498.
