### Issue Details
On iOS and macCatalyst, setting BackgroundColor = null on an Entry or
Editor at runtime does not restore the native default appearance. Once a
custom color is applied, it persists even after the property is cleared.
### Root Cause
The shared iOS background update logic only resets BackgroundColor =
null for LayoutView subclasses — all other UIView types silently return.
MauiTextField (Entry) and MauiTextView (Editor) are not LayoutView
subclasses, so the reset is skipped.
### Description of Change
Platform-specific MapBackground methods were added to
EntryHandler.iOS.cs and EditorHandler.iOS.cs. When
Background.IsNullOrEmpty(), they now explicitly set
platformView.BackgroundColor = null to restore native appearance.
Validated the behavior in the following platforms
- [x] Android
- [x] Windows
- [x] iOS
- [x] Mac
### Issues Fixed
Fixes #34611
