[6.0] Searchtools use requestSubmit() and add joomla:update listener

[LadySolveig]

Pull Request for Issue # .

Summary of Changes

This PR replaces submit() with requestSubmit() method to make it possible to work with the submit event in other places after submission of the searchtool filters. (e. g. submit form and only partly reload page via ajax).

You can find more information here https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLFormElement/requestSubmit#usage_notes

It also adds a joomla:updated event event listener for this use case to reinitialize functionality after only partly reloading the page.

Testing Instructions

Preparation

const testSearchtools = () => {
  const searchtools = document.querySelector('.js-stools');
  if (!searchtools) {
    return;
  }

  document.addEventListener('submit', event => {
    console.log('Test searchtools submit', event.target);
  });

  // Cleanup
  document.removeEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', testSearchtools);
};

// Execute on DOM Loaded Event
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', testSearchtools);

I would appreciate your feedback on whether this change makes sense to you. 🙂 @dgrammatiko @Fedik

[Fedik]

Seems makes sense.
But we probabbly still should add a check if(form.requestSubmit), because in Safari it available only from 2022y

[LadySolveig]

Thanks for the suggestion, will add the additional check tomorrow. 👍🏼
