### Ionic Framework Version
v8.x
### Current Behavior
When setting a new `` instance's `textContent` before it is attached to the document and then after attaching it re-assigning a new `textContent` value will leave both visible.
See: https://codepen.io/ErikOnBike/pen/XJXqZxR
### Expected Behavior
The second assignment to the `textContent` property should remove the existing `textContent` value.
### Steps to Reproduce
See: https://codepen.io/ErikOnBike/pen/XJXqZxR
### Code Reproduction URL

### Ionic Info
n/a
### Additional Information
This might be the effect of StencilJS' textContent patching. I'm not sure if I fully understand why StencilJS does all kinds of patching for WebComponents. It overrides things like `children`, `childNodes` and `textContent` which results in awkward behaviour if you're not following the standard Angular/Vite approach of dealing with DOM manipulation. I bumped into this a number of times now (I'm not using the mentioned frameworks).
