### Ionic Framework Version
v8.x
### Current Behavior
On Ionic Angular, the ViewEncapsulation.ShadowDOM will wrap a custom web component into its own ShadowRoot. This will break the ion-menu since we can only provide a contentId that the component uses to get the respective element via
` const content = this.contentId !== undefined ? document.getElementById(this.contentId) : null;`
With the elements inside the ShadowRoot, they won't be found by getElementById(), it cannot get properly linked and we receive the error message:
> Menu: must have a 'content' element to listen for drag events on.
### Expected Behavior
Additionally to the contentId it would be great also to be able to provide a contentElement, so that in more specific cases of ViewEncapsulation the ion-menu can still be utilized.
### Steps to Reproduce
1. Create a custom Angular web component
2. Set the component's encapsulation to `encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.ShadowDom`
3. Add an ion-menu to the web-component and set the contentId to a respective ion-router-outlet or ion-content.
