Description
What happened?
After I enabled password auto filling, when the save password prompt appears, the whole webview2 window keeps unresponsive for a few seconds.
Importance
Important. My app's user experience is significantly compromised.

Repro steps
Use the official win32 getting start guide,
use this code to enable password auto save
auto settings_4 = settings.query<ICoreWebView2Settings4>();
settings_4->put_IsGeneralAutofillEnabled(true);
settings_4->put_IsPasswordAutosaveEnabled(true);
Go to google.com to login, and you should be able to observe the issue.
You can see my recording, the window can't even be dragged around when this happens.

It might be a regression, because I must have tested this feature in our app before and if it's this kind of unrepsonsive I will have disabled this feature.
