fix(material-experimental/mdc-form-field): fix outline notch width (#23005)

* fix(material-experimental/mdc-form-field): fix outline notch width

This commit fixes a couple of issues that have been introduced
by accident over time:

1. The outline notch width is incorrectly calculated since
   #21676. This happens
   because we manually override the label's typography level to `body1`
   but didn't account for the `font-size` set by the `notched-outline`.
   This resulted in the computed label width being incorrect.

2. #22089 added `line-height:
   0` to fix textarea's accidentally expanding the infix vertically.
   This breaks custom controls and their alignment. Textarea's behave a
   little different compared to a native input, and the actual fix seems
   to be to fix the alignment from `top` to `middle` so that the infix
   does not try to add additional padding (due to the inherited `body1`
   line-height and to satisfy `min-height`). Example:
   https://jsfiddle.net/rpvm4bkL/6/.

3. Typography has been moved with
   #21676 to the
   input control (notice how `font: inherit` is removed too). This
   breaks custom form controls that rely on the typography provided
   by the form-field (these controls would just inherit typography)

4. Not an actual fix, but a cleanup since 21ab17f
  added a class to avoid styles from the form-field leaking into
  standalone inputs. The class has been updated to be more specific that
  it only matches form-control inputs, and not _any_ type of form
  control.

* fix(material-experimental/mdc-form-field): increase specificity of `line-height: normal` on the floating label
