Closes #1937

This PR is a big overhaul/refactor of StructuredList to provide an accessible experience for keyboard and screen reader users changes include

  • new keyboard interaction pattern moving away from tab based selection and using a radio button style selection
  • no longer using <label> as row elements to handle clicks -- no using React.context
  • changed component role from table to grid to more closely follow WAI-Aria spec

Deprecations

This PR introduces the following deprecations to existing StructuredList API (breaking changes should be behind a feature-flag:

  • label prop which allowed table rows to select their nested radio buttons via event propagation
  • defaultChecked maybe unnecessary, but React was throwing a warning about controlled/uncontrolled components
  • onChange our context setup utilizes the onChange prop on the inputs now
  • value is now set according to context

Testing

Ideally, functionality, styling, and mouse based interaction should be identical with keyboard interaction and screen reader accessibility improving greatly 🏄🏽

Noticed a small little visual bug at the top right of the component

Looking great! Just has that small style nit for naming conventions and then snapshots that are failing in CircleCI 👀
