Re: [html-tests] Test same-value-setting not changing selection for input/textarea (#5147)

@domenic it doesn't look like there are any tests here exercising the situation when https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/forms.html#value-sanitization-algorithm modifes the value, right?  It's not quite obvious to me whether "new value" as used in the setter of the "value" mode at https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/forms.html#dom-input-value in step 5 means the string that was passed to the setter or the string after application of the value sanitization algorithm, and the lack of tests makes it likely UAs would end up with differing interpretations there.  Ideally we would both test the behavior and define it more clearly in the spec.
