The fix is to detect that we're inserting the current editor value in `ComboBoxSelectionModel::itemsContentObserver`, and select the correct item directly. We also need to account for this situation in `ListViewBitSetSelectionModel`, where we check whether the current value is already contained in the added values.

Marked as reviewed by angorya (Reviewer).
I'd like a second pair of eyes on this, due to change in ListView (though the change looks reasonable and the test seems to be doing the right thing).
Also, I only tested it with the reproducer on macOS 15.1.1 M1, can we get this tested on Windows and/or Linux?
(just noticed you already specified 2 reviewers, my "contribution" was unnecessary)
