fix(input): incorrect height with autosize (angular#4084)

Currently when using the `mdTextareaAutosize` directive the textarea height might be incorrect on component initialization.

This happens because the textarea `scrollHeight` property is not ready in the `ngOnInit` lifecycle hook yet.

Other libraries like `angular-elastic` have timeouts for that. But using the `ngAfterViewInit` lifecycle hook is more elegant and also ensures that the `scrollHeight` property is ready.

Also switches `offsetHeight` to `clientHeight` since we don't want to include the border in our line-height calculations.

Also by default `textarea` elements have a padding of `2px` and the `padding` needs to be explicitly set to `0px` when resolving the line-height.

Fixes angular#4070.
