 If an admin toolbar dropdown is added with multiple level dropdowns and
 the intermediary parent is not linked, the descendant dropdowns are not
 accessible.

 This is because the adminbar switches to a `<div>` for the parent
 container if there's no link, and it can't receive focus.

 Patch switches this to an anchor link that points to the list item
 container ID for a target value. This could also be solved by adding
 `tabindex="0"` to the `div`, but that would require duplicating the focus
 and hover styles.

 Example: See adminbar navigation implementation in Yoast SEO
