Reader: Keyboard overlaps comment field on Nexus 5

[blowery]

#2667 added a nice auto-expand for comments, but there's one lingering problem: On the Nexus 5, the keyboard totally overlaps the textarea when it appears. Scrolling and typing seems to work, but it's not a great UX.

See if there's anything we can do about it.

This suggests that it's a bug, and can be worked around with Element.scrollIntoViewIfNeeded():

Not keen on the user agent sniff though.
