[web] No way to set the placeholderMessage value #178172

Description

@yjbanov

Internal Google issue: b/458487868

The web engine has a mutable top-level variable that specifies the label for the accessibility placeholder. It even documents that it can be updated (e.g. to internationalize it). However, it is declared in an internal engine library not exposed to the user.

Code:

/// The message in the label for the placeholder element used to enable

We should move it to dart:ui_web, which is public, and can be actually set by the app developer.

Reproduction code

There's no way to write code to reproduce this. There simply is no public setter to call.
