Description

### What is affected?

Component

### Description

First click on the main body opens the menu for a choice as expected,
but clicking the main body again (with the intention of cancellation) is not closing the menu.

### Reproduction

[PLAYGROUND](https://lit.dev/playground/#project=W3sibmFtZSI6Im1hdGVyaWFsLWltcG9ydHMuanMiLCJjb250ZW50IjoiaW1wb3J0IFwiQG1hdGVyaWFsL3dlYi9zZWxlY3Qvb3V0bGluZWQtc2VsZWN0LmpzXCI7XG5pbXBvcnQgXCJAbWF0ZXJpYWwvd2ViL3NlbGVjdC9zZWxlY3Qtb3B0aW9uLmpzXCI7In0seyJuYW1lIjoiaW5kZXguaHRtbCIsImNvbnRlbnQiOiI8IURPQ1RZUEUgaHRtbD5cbjxzY3JpcHQgdHlwZT1cIm1vZHVsZVwiIHNyYz1cIi4vbWF0ZXJpYWwtaW1wb3J0cy5qc1wiPjwvc2NyaXB0PlxuXG48bWQtb3V0bGluZWQtc2VsZWN0PlxuICA8bWQtc2VsZWN0LW9wdGlvbiBhcmlhLWxhYmVsPVwiYmxhbmtcIj48L21kLXNlbGVjdC1vcHRpb24-XG4gIDxtZC1zZWxlY3Qtb3B0aW9uIHNlbGVjdGVkIHZhbHVlPVwiYXBwbGVcIj5cbiAgICA8ZGl2IHNsb3Q9XCJoZWFkbGluZVwiPkFwcGxlPC9kaXY-XG4gIDwvbWQtc2VsZWN0LW9wdGlvbj5cbiAgPG1kLXNlbGVjdC1vcHRpb24gdmFsdWU9XCJhcHJpY290XCI-XG4gICAgPGRpdiBzbG90PVwiaGVhZGxpbmVcIj5BcHJpY290PC9kaXY-XG4gIDwvbWQtc2VsZWN0LW9wdGlvbj5cbjwvbWQtb3V0bGluZWQtc2VsZWN0PiJ9LHsibmFtZSI6InBhY2thZ2UuanNvbiIsImNvbnRlbnQiOiJ7XG4gIFwiZGVwZW5kZW5jaWVzXCI6IHtcbiAgICBcImxpdFwiOiBcIl4yLjAuMFwiLFxuICAgIFwiQGxpdC9yZWFjdGl2ZS1lbGVtZW50XCI6IFwiXjEuMC4wXCIsXG4gICAgXCJsaXQtZWxlbWVudFwiOiBcIl4zLjAuMFwiLFxuICAgIFwibGl0LWh0bWxcIjogXCJeMi4wLjBcIlxuICB9XG59IiwiaGlkZGVuIjp0cnVlfV0)

### Workaround

a click event listener can be used to manually close the menu when it's opened

### Is this a regression?

No or unsure. This never worked, or I haven't tried before.

### Affected versions

1.0.1

### Browser/OS/Node environment

Everywhere

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior using the linked playground, starting with the md-outlined-select and md-select-option imports in material-imports.js and index.html. Trace the select component's click handling and identify the existing behavior around reopening an open menu. Done means clicking the main container a second time closes the menu, with a regression check covering that interaction.
