inputMethod: Do not communicate preedit text change on reset

This is now done in the ClutterInputFocus for us, since
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1940. There
is no need to duplicate this call, and it happens to cause undesired
scrolling to content in some cases when this reset happens during
a change in the IM focused client state.

Fixes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/4647
(Cherry-picked from commit 047691b0d3471630ec80e32f371291dd2ef02419)
