<textarea value='{{foo}}'> doesn't work

[Rich-Harris]

Repro here — the generated code is wrong:

if ( textarea_value_value !== ( textarea_value_value = state.foo ) ) {
-  setAttribute( textarea, 'value', textarea_value_value );
+  textarea.value = textarea_value_value;
}

<textarea>{{foo}}</textarea> works, doesn't it? I'm not sure why we'd want to support <textarea value='{{foo}}> when <textarea value='some text'> doesn't work in regular HTML. I might be being overly pedantic.

Because the way that you update the contents of a textarea is with textarea.value = content - I'd argue it's more natural (and certainly easier to implement!) than <textarea>{{value}}</textarea>

Just ran into this issue moments ago, and I was about to open an issue about this. I'm glad you ran into this as well!

I don't see a reason not to allow using value, adds parity with the other form elements and since this is a compiler it doesn't add more code to the output.
