   * Sort logic:
   *   1. Keep the currently‑selected value at the very top so switching back
   *      to it is always a single <enter> press away.
   *   2. When the user has not typed anything yet (q === ""), keep the
   *      original order provided by `initialItems`.  This allows callers to
   *      surface a hand‑picked list of recommended / frequently‑used options
   *      at the top while still falling back to a deterministic alphabetical
   *      order for the rest of the list (they can simply pre‑sort the array
   *      before passing it in).
   *   3. As soon as the user starts typing we revert to the previous ranking
   *      mechanism that tries to put the best match first and then sorts the
   *      remainder alphabetically.
