fix(material/chips): unable to shift + tab out of a chip set (#26727)

Fixes that it wasn't possible for the user to use shift + tab to move out of a chip set. We had some logic to handle it already, but it was resetting the tabindex before focus has a chance to escape.

Fixes #26698.

(cherry picked from commit 168619b)
