Revert Safari-specific placeholder changes

Jon Banafato requested to merge remove-safari-fix into master

Safari does not support multiline placeholders in textarea elements, which causes rendering issues for users of that browser. Our fixes, however, cause more issues than they solve. The root cause of this issue is that Safari does not comply with the spec as all other major browsers do. Due to the relatively small percentage of users on Safari and the nontrivial effort a fix requires, we'll support the spec here, and users of non-compliant browsers may see improperly rendered outline placeholders until their browsers update with fixes.

Closes !23 (closed), fixes #53 (closed).
