The keyboard navigation does not function correctly when the Calendar is used with JAWS (or NVDA) the keyboard navigation.

Steps to reproeduce:

  1. Run the screen reader and open https://stackblitz.com/edit/react-8gmkw3?file=app%2Fmain.jsx
  2. Open the calendar popup
  3. Press the ArrowLeft key (or alt + arrow)
  4. Press Enter

Result: with NVDA, it picks the first of the month (sometimes it goes back in years) and with JAWS nothing happens
