WPT click or clickAndWait commands are synthetic and do not dispatch trusted events.

Description

WPT action APIs are synthetic and do not dispatch trusted events. This means that events triggered by click or clickAndWait will be ignored by the EventTiming APIs

Steps to reproduce

Create an event handler that listens to click event and logs "isTrusted" property of the event with a command like:
execAndWait document.body.addEventListener("click", function(e){console.warn('isTrusted is ', e.isTrusted)}, {passive: true, capture: true})
Then run a clickAndWait command like:
clickAndWait id=<>

This will log onto the console that "isTrusted is false"

Expected result

We want that click event's isTrusted property to be true.

FYI @slightlyoff. Currently the EventTiming API ignores events where isTrusted is false which means we can't utilize the signals from that API in WPT. I believe MSFT's internal WPT usage is interested in picking this up soon

@MaryamHuntsperger It'd be interesting to generalize this item to include also being able to dispatch other trusted events (like touch and keyboard events)
