[yew-devel] [PATCH yew-widget-toolkit 3/4] input panel: use the labels tags 'for' property for fields

that way we get some nice default browser behavior when clicking on
labels that belong to a field.

When not using the InputPanel, one hast to manually connect the field
and label with their ids.

We want to use prevent_default in the labels onpointerdown event, so we
can prevent the field from losing focus, which would introduce a glitch
for e.g. comoboxes.
