forwardRef used in defaultStyle to pass ref in MentionInput component

[gurpreet013]

Fixes #411

What did you change (functionally and technically)? As MentionInput is wrapped by defaultStyle wrapper ref was not getting set. So In defaultStyle file under utils directory, i have used forwardRef to pass my ref to MentionInput component so that anyone can use MentionInput ref in their parent component.

Use Case Recently i had a requirement in which after writing some query if there is only 1 suggestion and user enters space then that mention should get selected. To achieve this i checked there is no way to send custom key props in the react mention and i don't want to write selectFocused function code which covers all the use cases. So i want to use it through ref but due to the issue mentioned in #411. I was not able to do it

The project has collected a few dust, but after a few changes in governance, I'm now reviewing/merging. Please, give me some little time more as I get a hold of issues and figure stuff out 😅
