inputMethod: Clear preeditStr before reset

Previously, these were performed in a different order before GNOME 41.
During some other changes they were swapped.

However, this causes both GTK 3 and GTK 4 applications to scroll to
incorrect positions from the preedit change.

Fixes #4647
Fixes GNOME/gtk#4289
Fixes GNOME/gnome-builder#1536
Fixes GNOME/gnome-builder#1531
