bug(mat-form-field): changes appearance with box-sizing: border-box
Is this a regression?
- [ ] Yes, this behavior used to work in the previous version
The previous version in which this bug was not present was
No response
Description
A lot of apps (notably the ones using Tailwind) use * {box-sizing: border-box; } to default box-sizing to border-box.
This causes top outline on focused mat-form-field with appearance="outline" to change appearance around the label when it's floating. It doesn't change much but enough to feel that something's off because the upper-left bit becomes shorter.

I assume material is "border-box friendly" because I saw a few similar resolved issues while looking if this has been reported
