Because we only type when keys exist the default value will remain, and it is not possible to clear it.

To make this possible the input field needs to be cleared first.
Here the WebDriver spec definition of setting the text:

> Perform user agent dependent steps to set the value of current user prompt’s text field to text.

As such internally Marionette uses `interaction.sendKeysToElement()` similar to the `Element Send Keys` command. Hereby the latter command doesn't replace the content, but concatenates the given `text` at the end.
The patch refactors the test file, and also adds an additional test,
which makes sure that the default text of the prompt is replaced in
case of an empty string is send as text.
