[Feature]: add `disabled` argument to `ui.input_text()` (and potentially other inputs)

Scope

Minor Enhancement

Problem

It'd be great if we could dynamically disable / enable ui.input_text() form fields (similar to the behavior of ui.input_action_button()).

Quite often certain inputs only make sense when another input (e.g. a checkbox) is present and disabling / greying out these fields is a elegant way to handle that (but currently that's not possible).

Solution

It'd be great if a disabled argument could be added to ui.input_text() (and potentially other input types) analogously to ui.input_action_button().

For the R version of Shiny, this functionality will also need to be implemented.
In the interim, I recommend using the following resource for a method to hide or show input fields:
