Description

### MDN URL

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/VirtualKeyboard_API

### What specific section or headline is this issue about?

_No response_

### What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

The page could benefit from these improvements:

- I think that page should make a distinction between the visual viewport and the layout viewport. It's - by default - only the visual viewport that gets resized when the Virtual Keyboard gets shown. The Layout Viewport remains untouched.
- There's also a link with https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Viewport_meta_tag#the_effect_of_interactive_ui_widgets, which can be used to opt into the overlayscontent behavior.

### What did you expect to see?

See above.

### Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?
