text_input: Ignore enable requests from unfocused windows

Unfocused windows shouldn't be allowed to activate the IM.

This fixes an issue with swaymsg invocations that contain several
commands which result in multiple swift focus changes. An application
briefly gets text input focus, sends an enable request, then sway
processes it and activates the IM only after the commands are all
finished and focus is on something else which did not send an enable
request.
