Tested in: Firefox (63), Chrome (70) on Docassemble 0.3.7

I have noticed that, when including multiple choice radio buttons or check boxes, there does not appear to be a way to use tab to access the fields. It would be nice if it was possible that you could use tab with a combination of the arrow keys to set the values of these fields, rather than having to depend on a mouse.

I might be able to implement that on top of Labelauty, which is the plug-in that is used for radio buttons and check boxes.

However, this has been an open issue in fntneves/jquery-labelauty#13 for a few years, so maybe it is a hard problem.

Tab and shift-tab can now be used with multiple-choice fields. I did not implement cursor key navigation of multiple choice items; the tab and shift-tab are standard for this purpose, and cursor keys already have a purpose for scrolling the page, so I did not want to interfere with those defaults in this context.
