Fixes #28404

Previously RovingTabIndexProvider held an array of refs in state. Every time a new ref was added to the array, the entire array was sorted. With strict mode, refs/reducers/components/effects are all run twice. This lead to some refs being unset (i.e ref.current = null) just before sorting began.

This PR fixes the issue by refactoring the code so that we keep an array of DOM elements instead of refs.

This code originally held an array of refs. But these refs were unset
just before sorting leading to errors.

For the fix, I've used a callback ref to add/remove the DOM elements
to/from the array in state. This way there's nothing that could possibly
mutate just before sort.
