Ionic Framework Version

v8.x

Current Behavior

Currently, with clear-input it shifts the icon to the left, so the alignment looks weird:

Expected Behavior

Ideally, we want something like this:

Oddly enough when trying to apply CSS positioning, it makes the icon non-interactable, i.e. can't click on it anymore.

Steps to Reproduce

          <ion-input aria-label="Password" type="password" placeholder="Password" clear-input>
            <ion-icon slot="start" :icon="lockClosedOutline" aria-hidden="true"></ion-icon>
            <ion-input-password-toggle  slot="end"></ion-input-password-toggle>
          </ion-input>
