Description

in addition to #239 we should add an `autofocus` option to allow the input element to have the [`autofocus`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input#attr-autofocus) set or not.

This would make https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-js-docs/issues/387 supported without hacks.

Research direction

Find the geocoder input element and the existing option-handling entry point, then trace how related options are applied. Add the autofocus option so it controls whether the input receives the HTML autofocus attribute, and verify both enabled and disabled behavior with the relevant existing tests.
