fix(selection-list): incorrectly handling A key in some cases

Fixes a couple of issues related to how the selection list handles the "A" key:
1. The typeahead doesn't work for the "A" key. It's because we were intercepting it earlier to support the "Select all" functionality.
2. Disables the ctrl + A shortcut in single selection mode, because it only makes sense during multi selection.
