    IgxFocus should focus the element it is applied on.
 <input type="text" [igxFocus]="true" />As a developer I want to be able to force auto focus to any given element whenever it appears into the DOM.
As an end user I would like to focus the element where directive is applied right after it appears into the DOM.
Automatically focusing the cell of igxGrid when we are entering into edit mode.

The host element for the directive should be focusable - i.e. it should be a native input element or an element with a tabindex attribute set.
