Description

The thing is that normally the `placeholderText` of TextField and TextArea elements disappear when input text to the element. This behavior happens on WASM and Linux Desktop(those I have tried).

But in Android, the placeholder text does not disappear it moves to the top of the element.

Also, in the case of TextArea, the input text gets on top of the placeholder text(this is the BUG).

I expect the behavior to be the same across platforms because Qt is multiplatform.(this is a minor bug)

I prefer the behavior on Wasm and Linux Desktop platforms.

To reproduce the issue, run the following example:

import QtQuick
import QtQuick.Controls.Material
import QtQuick.Layouts

ApplicationWindow {
    id: window
    width: 640
    height: 480
    visible: true

    ColumnLayout {
        anchors.fill: parent

        TextField {
            Layout.margins: 20
            Layout.fillWidth: true
            placeholderText: "placeholderText1"
        }
        TextField {
            Layout.margins: 20
            Layout.fillWidth: true
            placeholderText: "placeholderText2"
            background: Rectangle {
                border.width: 1 // TextControlBorderThemeThickness
                border.color: "white"
                color: "transparent"
            }
        }
        TextArea {
            Layout.margins: 20
            Layout.fillHeight: true
            Layout.fillWidth: true
            placeholderText: "placeholderText \n of many lines\m maybe is in JSON \n format"
        }
    }
}
