Cursor jumping issue if the ref passed isn't a ref object

Describe the bug If the ref you pass to a currency amount input isn’t a mutable ref object but instead is a function, then the logic to prevent cursor jumping doesn’t get triggered, and therefore the cursor jumps. This is particularly annoying since I want to pass several refs merged together into a single ref function into the currency input, but that causes it to jump around.

https://github.com/cchanxzy/react-currency-input-field/blob/d7c63d5f5398f30d37f3480129c8775a28d03f2e/src/components/CurrencyInput.tsx#L303-L314

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Pass a ref function to the currency amount input
2. try typing near a thousands separator comma
3. see that it jumps the cursor to the end

Expected behavior both object and function refs work

Additional context can work around by calling the ref function in a useEffect().
