Made an update that sets the caret color to match the text color.

[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/54db23e4fff759e716f56d4f9582e22652a66763](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/54db23e4fff759e716f56d4f9582e22652a66763)

I was considering having an exception for light themes on iOS, but that seemed like a very narrow exception and there are cases where you could have a blue background with a blue iOS caret… so it seems like it would be better to consistently match the text color everywhere…

I wonder if Apple will have a better cursor color for dark mode in iOS 13? 🤔

You can override this in a theme with the following CSS:

```css
input,
select,
textarea {
   caret-color: /* your color here */;
}

```
