+Type the Input family's props: `InputProps`/`InputFieldProps` now extend
+`InputHTMLAttributes<HTMLInputElement | HTMLTextAreaElement>`, so every real DOM
+prop — including `onChange` — is declared and autocompletes, and handler
+parameters infer under `strict` without hand annotations. Existing handlers
+annotated with the narrower element types remain assignable.
+
+The `[x: string]: any` index signature is kept for backwards compatibility but
+is now `@deprecated`; it will be removed in the next major, at which point prop
+typos stop compiling.
+
+`TextField` moves from `forwardRef` to React 19 ref-as-prop (required for the
+declared prop types to survive; `PropsWithoutRef` collapses named props into
+the index signature). The public contract is unchanged: `ref?: Ref<HTMLElement>`
+receiving the underlying `<input>`/`<textarea>`.
