Allow clicks below CQL dropdown

What does this change?

Suggestions dropdown has invisible area below where no clicks work:

I played with this fix and tried to break it, but dismissing by click outside/ESC works, clicking tapping items works, I couldn't break it.

🤖 narrative:

Fix typeahead popover intercepting clicks in empty space below suggestions.

The .Cql__TypeaheadPopoverContainer has height: 100% to support scroll on long lists, but this means it extends well beyond the visible dropdown content. Clicks/taps in this dead space are swallowed by the container instead of reaching elements underneath.

Fix: pointer-events: none on the container, pointer-events: auto on the inner .Cql__TypeaheadPopover. The visible dropdown remains fully interactive; the invisible overflow is click-through.

How has this change been tested?

I tested a patched library in me toy. Also bun happy.

How can we measure success?

No invisible forces at play. World is explainable again. If a tad boring.

Pull request overview

This PR addresses an interaction issue where the CQL typeahead popover’s container extended beyond the visible dropdown, swallowing clicks in the empty space below the suggestions and preventing interaction with underlying UI.

Changes:

• Makes the typeahead popover container click-through by disabling pointer events on the container.
• Re-enables pointer events on the visible .Cql__TypeaheadPopover so dropdown items remain interactive.
