Summary	0012025: AML: 'Session locked' page does not focus the password field
Description	What happens: The officer session is locked on every reload, and also when the officer presses 'Lock' in the header. Routing then renders UnlockSession (also used by HandleAccountNotReady). It is a dedicated unlock page whose only input is the password, but nothing is focused, so the officer has to click into the field before typing. Measured on the 'officer access / SessionLocked' story: activeElement = BODY. Expected: The password input is focused as soon as the page appears. Where: - packages/taler-exchange-aml-webui/src/components/UnlockSession.tsx:146 Measured in headless Chromium (document.activeElement): before: BODY (nothing focused) after: INPUT[name=password][type=password] Depends on: "web-util: Forms: `<FormUI focus>` and the per-field `focus` prop never focus anything" (sibling issue in this tree); without it this fix has no effect. Proposed fix: Pass the form framework's `focus` property to the password `InputLine`. This takes effect through the web-util change, now in the working tree, that makes InputLine focus itself once on mount when `focus` is set (useAutoFocus). Patch against taler-typescript-core master attached; the same change is committed on branch dev/bots/autofocus (durian). Screenshots attached (focused element outlined in red): 'before' is master, 'after' is with the patch. Verified: tsc --noEmit ok (planted-error sanity check caught); AML unit tests 69/69 pass, including UnlockSession.test; before = git HEAD (aml + web-util), after = working tree incl. the web-util useAutoFocus change; the screenshot confirms the caret is in the password field
