Count a text field's characters against its maximum

Browse Source 
M3 lists "supporting text + character counter" as a configuration of both
text-field variants; nothing in the package drew one (plan step 24, audit
docs/audits/m3-alignment/inputs.md § Missing). `counter` on `<x-input>` and
`<x-textarea>` now puts `n/max` at the end of the supporting-text row, counted
from the control on every input, in the error colour past the maximum, and said
as M3's own "Character count, 5/20" from a polite region once typing settles.

M3 text fields. `variant`: `outlined` or `filled`; without it, `config('livewire-material.fields.variant')` (`outlined`). All take `label`, `hint`, `variant` (and all but `<x-file>` a `hint-class`, classes added to the hint: `hint-class="text-warning"`), and read their errors from the bag under the `wire:model` name, or the `name` in a plain form (`photos[]` → `photos`, `address[city]` → `address.city`); the error replaces the hint, sets `aria-invalid`, and puts an `error` icon at the end of the row as M3's second indicator (not on `size="xs"`, and not when the field already trails something — `icon-right`, `clearable`, `copyable`). `class` lands on the field's outer element (margins, widths); every other attribute (`wire:model`, `type`, `required`, `readonly`, `autocomplete`) reaches the control. Never pass `placeholder` expecting it to show while a label rests in the field: it shows once the field has focus.

- `counter` (on `<x-input>` and `<x-textarea>`) puts M3's character counter at the end of the supporting-text row, beside the hint or the error: `n/max`, counted on every keystroke against the field's own `maxlength`, and in the error colour once the value is past it. It needs `maxlength` — without one there is nothing to count against and nothing is drawn. It is said as "Character count, 5/20" from a polite region a second after typing stops.
- `<x-select>`: native `<select>` (M3 menu where the browser supports customizable selects). `options` as `['id' => …, 'name' => …, 'disabled' => bool]`, `option-value`, `option-label`, `placeholder` + `placeholder-value`, or `<option>`s in the slot; `icon`, `size`.
- `<x-file>`: native file input; errors from `photos` and `photos.*`. Show previews of what was chosen yourself.
- `<x-field id="…" label="…" :messages="$messages">` wraps a custom control given `class="field-control"`; only for controls the package does not have.
