[Textfield] multiline: correct cursor positioning on click in padding-area

[FranBran]

• The issue is present in the latest release.
• I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.

Current Behavior 😯

When clicking the padding-area, the cursor jumps to the last known cursor position

Expected Behavior 🤔

When clicking the padding-area, the cursor jumps to the nearest position like it does for single-line textfields

Your Environment 🌎

We had a similar topic about caret position a #23096. But it seems different. Currently the padding structure yields the following scroll outcome:

We could potentially change it to:

Notice that the top & bottom is the same (we can't change it), it's not perfect but it's already an improvement.

I think that if we decide to spend time on this, we might as well explore #22544 (comment).

This issue still exists, and I would love to try and fix it

This happens to me too, but just in Firefox. In others browsers (Chrome, Safari, Edge, etc.) works as expected.
