Remove direct usage of CSS variables in Minerva, and replace them with
codex design tokens again. Document this decision in the original ADR
Note: there are still a small number of CSS variables in use, including
most notably the --color-link-red fix, which broke when I removed it,
but this change takes care of all the ones that could be easily replaced

* Update mediawiki.skin.variables to point non-Codex tokens to
Codex token equivalents
* Replace box-shadow-color-drawer with @box-shadow-color-base
* Leave FIXME comments for migrating the last two CSS variables
* Replace direct access to CSS variable with @color-link-new
design token instead since the former may no longer exist.

All colors used in Minerva are converted from Less variables
into CSS custom properties. A new file called CSSCustomProperties.less
is created in the skins.minerva.base.styles module to store
these custom properties and an ADR is provided on the rationale for
dropping support for browsers that don't support custom properties.
The new CSS custom properties follow Codex design token conventions
where possible (and noted when not).
Link colors are unique because their styles are defined in core,
so in that case the Less variables values are set to custom properties.
Those values are then fed back into MediaWiki core for core link
styling.
Also adds a temporary night-mode color palette under the
.skin-nightmode-1 class on the <html> element.

Converts all Less variable names from CamelCase to snake-case
per the MediaWiki coding conventions.
Removes the following unused Less variables, mostly
related to icons, since those were converted to Codex:
- @icon-touch-area-sm
- @icon-touch-area-md
- @min-size-icon (replaced with @size-icon-medium)
- @icon-glyph-size-sm
- @icon-size-sm
- @icon-padding-sm
- @icon-glyph-size-md
- @icon-size-md
- @margin-icon-md-labelled

Once the cache has cleared out and all tab links are nested in li
elements (983960), follow up on the fixmes introduced and update the
stylesheet to reflect the single way we will be styling `minerva__tab`s
going forward. This should not be merged until after the break to
ensure the cache has had time to clear
No visual changes on this one as it _should_ effectively be a noop

As part of my work on fixing addPortletLink for tabs on mobile (T340728)
we need these tabs to be correctly designated as an unordered list (note,
this is also how they are rendered in Vector). In addition, update the
styles to account for the link being nested in a list item now
There should be no visual change as a result of this, but if there is
please let me know!! I will be testing locally in pixel after pushing
to ensure the change is transparent

Replacing 'mediawiki.ui/variables.less' @import with
new skin-aware 'mediawiki.skin.variables.less' standard.
Removing calls for 'mediawiki.skin.variables.less' in favor for
'minerva.variables.less' for consistency.
Also
- replacing several static values with new Codex design token featuring
skin variables of `background-color`, `color`, `border-*` and
`transition` categories
- renaming several Less variables to variable naming standard
- moving a small number of MinervaNeue specific variables into
'minderva.variables.less' file. Those should be replaced in mid-future
by Codex design tokens
Please note, that this patch is not replacing all values with
possible Codex tokens. It's just applying them on selected
categories for consistency for now to keep the patch easier reviewable.
Further replacements will be done in follow-up patches.
Bump MediaWiki core required version to >= v1.41.0.

It's extremely annoying to not know if the link you're about to click in
a Minerva tab is a link to an existing page or not.
So, make the new link red, as is customary in all other skins.

* If the leftmost tab is selected, scroll all the way to the left
* If the rightmost tab is selected, scroll all the way to the right
* If a tab in the middle is selected, scroll to center it
* If the selected tab is wider than the tab container, make sure its
start (left edge in LTR, right edge in RTL) is always made visible.
As Bartosz reminded me, .scrollLeft in RTL is a cross-browser nightmare
(see https://github.com/othree/jquery.rtl-scroll-type), so add a bunch
of code working around this. Some of this logic is in OOUI already, but
what's there is not enough for what we need here, and we also don't want
to load OOUI for this.

* Add a container around the tabs and use flexbox
to position the tabs on one line and make it
scrollable.
* Add some JS to scroll the currently selected
tab into view.

Even though on most pages the tagline is empty, it still
has a bottom margin associated with it. This patch moves
that bottom margin into a container element that wraps
both the h1 and tagline.
This approach allows us to remove the bottom-margin from the tagline
as well as the top-margin from the AMC tabs in favour of just
one bottom margin on the .page-heading element.

A new feature/skin option is added that is enabled safely inside
a MobileFrontend available/unavailable hook that changes the skin
to place talk tabs at the top of the page.
These new talk tabs purposely show on the main page, user page
and standard pages and do not show on special pages.
