See bug 1645773 for standalone testcase: the use of background-color in the :focus style for the textarea tests here makes them unreliable (dependent on exact timing of reflows etc).

To paper over this issue for the sake of the autofocus tests here, I propose replacing the use of background-color in the styles with a different property that will not affect the sizing. Obviously, the underlying layout issue remains open, and should be fixed, but these tests can be made independent of it.

See Layout bug 1645773 for details. This patch works around the unreliability
by styling the text color instead of background, which has no effect on the
element sizing.
