Summary: Today on iOS 9.2 and below, the position of placeholder text in a UISearchBar is not configurable. One can configure where the actual search text is placed with the `searchTextPositionAdjustment` property but this property does not affect the placeholder text. App developers should be able to configure placeholder text offset either with the existing `searchTextPositionAdjustment` property or with it's own property, perhaps named `placeholderPositionAdjustment`. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make a UISearchBar with some non-empty placeholder text 2. set the searchTextPositionAdjustment to some nonzero offset (or set the as of yet nonexistent placeholderPositionAdjustment property to a nonzero offset). Expected Results: Placeholder text is offset by the defined offset. Actual Results: Placeholder text is not offset, but the searchText is. Regression: Occurs on iOS 9.2 Notes: N/A
