[Pr3]: TextArea field getValue() always returns empty string is config.value is empty

Please try this:

Code:

{
  xtype: 'textareafield',
  value: '',
  id: 'txt1'
}

After this field renders, enter something into it and then call:

Code:

Ext.getCmp('txt1').getValue()

This will always come up as empty and the reason is empty string for value in config. This was working fine in PR2 and broken in PR3.
