Description of Change
Just like with #3363, this PR updates the Entry and Editor to be fully Windows 11 styled!
I moved all the properties that affect the TextBox into the extension methods and implemented all the functionality from the outside. This will allow us to reuse basically all the logic with PasswordBox.
The
MauiTextBoxhas been renamed toMauiSearchTextBoxand I have created a smallerMauiPasswordTextBoxwith just theIsPasswordandPassword. The EntryHandler by default uses theMauiPasswordTextBox, and in a new PR I will make a newPasswordEntrycontrol and use the OSPasswordBox.Entry & PasswordEntry
On most platforms (ie: iOS and ANdroid) the "password-ness" of the control is just some flag that can be set or unset. On Windows (and potentially other platforms), the password control is an entirely new control and independent. It may even have fewer features.
As a result, we need to split the controls in the cross-platform layer to not only gain the OS features, but also make implementation easier. For platforms that use the same control, this is really easy as they can use all the same extension methods.
