Description

Added a JavaScript workaround to prevent Bootstrap dropdowns from toggling when pressing Enter in a form input. This ensures that pressing Enter in an input inside a form submits the form as expected, instead of toggling any dropdowns that appear after the input. The workaround is added to validate-forms.js as a temporary fix for #41354.

Motivation & Context

This change is required because, in Bootstrap 5.3.5, pressing Enter in a form input toggles dropdowns that appear after the input, instead of submitting the form. This is unexpected and breaks standard form behavior. The workaround restores the expected behavior until an upstream fix is released.
