📄 Description

Brief summary

Adds a toggle for the feature of auto selecting the bookmark text input. The reason being some users (like myself) don't want the keyboard to pop up when setting a bookmark and don't care about the text.

Which issue is fixed?

None

Pull Request Type

Affects both apps.
Affects both the frontend and backend of the apps (adds a new item into the device settings data store)

In-depth Description

Recently a change was made to auto select the text input when creating a bookmark. This negatively affected my use of the app as when I'm listening at night I would like to just quickly set a bookmark and then go to sleep. Auto selecting the text input makes the bright keyboard pop up and makes it harder to select create bookmark. I have added a toggle which allows users to disable the auto select so they can go back to how the app worked before. This way it still defaults to the new method but for users that would like to go back they now have an option.

How have you tested this?

Open the app
Start listening to an audiobook
Create a bookmark (This should auto select the text input)
Go to settings
Enable the toggle for disable auto focus
Create a bookmark (This should not auto select the text input)
