Feature request: autocomplete with auto select first option on blur

[daniel-sc]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
To enable faster user input, in our application the first match should automatically be selected when the user leaves an input/autocomplete.

Describe the solution you'd like
There should be an attribute autoSelectFirst (default false) that enables the desired behavior.

Describe alternatives you've considered
We are currently working around this, but this is tedious, as the blur event comes before the "selected event".

@daniel-sc Please re open if our new configuration possibilities don't solve your problem. maybe you have to combine "autoActiveFirstOption" with the new "autoSelectActiveOption" option.

@jeripeierSBB I know this is late - but it seems the suggested configuration does not solve this: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-bvwhrj?file=src/app/autocomplete-reactive-forms-example.html
