Issue: Can not send focus to an element with no content or to an element with a visually hidden first child

When the element is focused, voiceover jumps to the target, then imminently jumps back to the previously focused element without announcing anything.


Steps to reproduce
1. Turn VoiceOver On
2. Go to this page using safari on iOS
3. Click the 'Go to target with no content' link
4. Click the 'Go to target with content' link
5. Go to target with first child of screen-reader-only content

Expected results
1. The 'Go to target with no content' link moves focus to the target
2. The 'Go to target with content' link moves focus to the target
3. the 'Go to target with first child of screen-reader-only content' link moves focus to the target

Actual results
1. The 'Go to target with no content' link DOES NOT move focus to the target (success)
2. The 'Go to target with content' link moves focus to the target (fail)
3. the 'Go to target with first child of screen-reader-only content' link DOES NOT move focus to the target (fail)
