Description
### Is this a regression?
- [ ] Yes, this behavior used to work in the previous version
### The previous version in which this bug was not present was
_No response_
### Description
The `typeInElement` [1] still sets the input value even if the `keydown` event has default prevented. This is different from the actual behavior [2]

### Reproduction
StackBlitz link: https://stackblitz.com/edit/harness-issue-4xv58x?file=src%2Fapp%2Fharness-example.html

`event.preventDefault()` should stop the browser from populating the input element.
### Actual Behavior
Input element is still populated with values
### Environment
- Angular: 10.2.3
- CDK/Material: 11.0.0
- Browser(s): Chrome

Research direction
Start in src/cdk/testing/testbed/fake-events/type-in-element.ts at the linked line, then run the provided StackBlitz reproduction to compare the harness behavior with the browser behavior. The issue is done when a keydown event with defaultPrevented set no longer populates the input element.
