feat(element/input): text input element implementation
Some checks failed
Zig Project Action / Lint, Spell-check and test zig project (push) Failing after 14s

Moved implementation from example/input as a standalone `Element`
implementation, which is directly used by the example instead.

The provided argument is the `App.Event`'s event that should be
triggered on acceptance for the contents of the Input `Element`.
Currently only `[]u21` strings are supported, but in the future also
`[]u8` strings shall be supported and automatically converted when
pushed as an `App.Event` into the app's queue.
