Cypress errors on cy.type in an input type='phone'

[lobor]

When writing the following code, an error displays saying cy.type can't be used on the specified input with type="phone"

###Example Code

cy.type('[type="phone"]').type('1234567')

###Error

CypressError: .type() can only be called on textarea or :text!

It needs to be whitelisted to allow typing into similar to types text, search, url, etc.

phone is not a valid input type in html, tel is valid. If you are able, update your html: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/tel

That being said, many users have asked us to loosen our validation logic, which is being tracked in this issue: #586
