## What is the current behavior?
<!-- Please describe the current behavior that you are modifying. -->

With `ion-input`, `ion-select`, or `ion-textarea` using
`fill="outline"`, applying a large value for the `--border-radius` CSS
prop causes the radius to render differently on the left and right
sides:

This is due to the structure of the outline container, which is used to
render the empty space in the border when a `stacked` or `floating`
label floats upwards. The container has three pieces, which combine to
form a seamless-looking border:

The issue is that the browser will only render a radius that fits within
the element's dimensions, and the piece on the left side (or right on
RTL) is not wide enough.

## What is the new behavior?
<!-- Please describe the behavior or changes that are being added by
this PR. -->

While we could fix this issue by making the left-side piece wider (and
there was originally a PR for this at
https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/pull/27459), it was
decided to not include this fix in Ionic automatically. This is because
the fix does not work for `label-placement="stacked"` or `"floating"`;
the notch spacer (the middle piece of the outline) is pushed to the
side, leading to broken visuals:

![broken

We decided that introducing inconsistent behavior across different
values for `label-placement` would be confusing for developers. Even if
we did restructure the outline container to position the notch spacer
correctly, it could easily be made to fall on the curve of the border,
creating awkward visuals.

Instead, developers looking to use a large `--border-radius` with
`fill="outline"` should either increase `--padding-start` to be at least
as high as the `--border-radius` (which will increase the width of the
left outline piece while also moving the floating label in step), or use
`shape="round"` (which will change both the padding and border radius
automatically). This PR documents this workaround in the
`--border-radius` description.
