[DropDowns] itemDisabled performance optimization

Hi,

The current scenario involves the itemDisabled function being invoked five times for each item when the popup is active.

Example - https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-natpq9-5uzrh5?file=src%2Fapp%2Fapp.component.ts

It would be preferable to optimize this such that the function is called only once per item.

We are declining this request due to low interest and demand.

However, if there is a surge in popularity at a later time, we will reconsider its status.
