## What is the current behavior?
<!-- Please describe the current behavior that you are modifying. -->
The `InputChangeEventDetail` and `InputInputEventDetail` interfaces were
updated to add a number type to the value key:
https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/pull/26176
This was done to align with the value property on ion-input which allows
for strings and numbers. However, this is incorrect as the value emitted
is always forced to a string:
c9bddbdb4c/core/src/components/input/input.tsx (L416)
We likely copied the the type definition for the `value` prop not
realizing that number values are never emitted.
## What is the new behavior?
<!-- Please describe the behavior or changes that are being added by
this PR. -->
- The `InputChangeEventDetail` and `InputInputEventDetail` interfaces no
longer have the `number` type
- The value passed to `ionInput` is converted to a string. (This isn't
really needed since the native `<input>` element will have a type of
string when the user types, but I added it for consistency with the
`ionChange` emission).
- Added a code comment to highlight this behavior
## Does this introduce a breaking change?
- [ ] Yes
- [x] No
Note: This is not a breaking change because `number` values were never
emitted in the first place.
<!-- If this introduces a breaking change, please describe the impact
and migration path for existing applications below. -->
## Other information
<!-- Any other information that is important to this PR such as
screenshots of how the component looks before and after the change. -->
BREAKING CHANGE:
The `detail` payload for the `ionInput` event on `ion-input` and `ion-textarea` now contains an object with the current `value` as well as the native event that triggered `ionInput`.
