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

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

This reverts commit 3474a0b90f.
Reason for revert: The after pseudo element appears to be needed
for the notification circle unfortunately. This is not a requirement
for this train so I suggest we tackle this later.

This apparently will become a problem when we switch to Codex

Changes
* Update FIXME in userMenu.less to merge selectors
* We replace minerva-user-notifications class with minerva-notifications
to short-circuit Echo's code so that it no longer replaces the Minerva
notification badge with its own.
* We update resources/skins.minerva.scripts/initMobile.js to introduce
our own wire up code - this is responsible for opening Echo overlay
and reseting the counter. The code in Echo will be removed in a follow
up (see <I2f923e509d24524a2375ffbe6b3ef336487574bb>)
* We update skinStyles/ext.echo.styles.badge.less with styles from Vector 2022
so that Minerva desktop remains consistent with desktop Vector 2022 experience.
* We clearly mark technical debt relating to the special mobile version.
Testing:
* Pixel.js has a group echo that covers all the different variants.
Make sure to update to latest main branch before running these.
* Desktop should behave the same for Minerva as Echo.
* On mobile only when a user has unseen notifications a red circle
is shown. Otherwise a bell icon is shown, never with number.
* On mobile a single button is visible that combines alert and count
numbers.
* With Echo disabled a bell shows that links to the user talk page
Visual changes:
* Previously the red circle became a transparent/gray circle on click. Now
it will always be red.
* Minor aligment changes to red circle and bell icon are expected as
the change prevents MobileFrontend/Echo updating the icon to use
Codex.

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.

uses the CSS :last-child selector to align the last item in the header
with the edge of the container.
This is usually the notification icon in "normal" mode and
the user menu icon in AMC mode.

* Remove ambiguity in imports - say the file extension
'less' for all instances of variables and mixins.
* Separate toast styles from drawer styles so they can be
imported separately
* associate header-action selector with its parent
(.overlay-header) not parent's parent (.overlay) so it can be imported
and rendered without the Overlay.

Use local imports instead given all relevant files are within the
same repository, and don't vary by configuraion.

* The notification-count style is only needed if you are logged
in. Given a small percentage of our users are logged in, we
load a lot of render blocking css unnecessarily.
* The bell icon is not needed for anonymous users so pull that
out from skins.minerva.icons.images which is loaded for all users
into a module only used by logged in users (skins.minerva.icons.loggedin)
* Simplify the user-button rule - it is overly specific - probably for
historic reasons.
Additional changes:
* Simplify isAuthenticated helper
