This adds functionality to focus the error summary component when the page loads.
This helps users of assistive technologies recognise and get out of situations when they've encountered an error in their submission.
This re-implements functionality in GOV.UK Elements, but avoids re-implementing the logic to set
event.preventDefault()
on links clicked.It's not clear why this was done, my assumption is that it's done to avoid cluttering the URL with anchor hashes but I'm not including this as we're not sure.
