fix(material/tabs): tab nav bar animation not working when navigating forwards (#30313)

Fixes a regression introduced in #30121. It looks like we were depending on the incorrect internal state to animate correctly.

These changes fix the issue by removing a call that was redundant in the first place.

Fixes #30303.

(cherry picked from commit 59a7985)
