Brandy Carney d53fb297e7 refactor(item): remove deprecated highlight variables used with legacy form controls (#29055)
Issue number: internal

---------

## What is the current behavior?

In Ionic Framework v7, we [simplified the form control
syntax](https://ionic.io/blog/ionic-7-is-here#simplified-form-control-syntax),
eliminating the requirement to place form controls inside of an
`ion-item`. We ensured backwards compatibility by introducing a `legacy`
property for the form controls and keeping, but deprecating, the
following CSS variables on item:

```css
--highlight-color-focused
--highlight-color-invalid
--highlight-color-valid
--highlight-height
```

While this was supported in v7, console warnings were logged to notify
developers that they needed to update to the modern syntax if they were
using form controls in an item for the best accessibility experience.

## What is the new behavior?

Removes the `--highlight-color-focused`, `--highlight-color-invalid`,
`--highlight-color-valid`, and `--highlight-height` variables from item.

## Does this introduce a breaking change?

- [x] Yes
- [ ] No

Steps taken to mitigate this breaking change: 
1. Developers have had console warnings when using the legacy syntax
since the v7 release and the variables were marked as `deprecated`.
2. The removal of these CSS variables has been documented in the
Breaking Changes document with a link to the migration guides for the
affected form controls.

BREAKING CHANGE:

The following CSS variables have been removed from item:
`--highlight-height`, `--highlight-color-focused`,
`--highlight-color-valid`, and `--highlight-color-invalid`. These
variables were used on the bottom border highlight of an item when the
form control inside of that item was focused. The form control syntax
was [simplified in
v7](https://ionic.io/blog/ionic-7-is-here#simplified-form-control-syntax)
so that inputs, selects, and textareas would no longer be required to be
used inside of an item.

If you have not yet migrated to the modern form control syntax,
migration guides for each of the form controls that added a highlight to
item can be found below:
- [Input migration
documentation](https://ionicframework.com/docs/api/input#migrating-from-legacy-input-syntax)
- [Select migration
documentation](https://ionicframework.com/docs/api/select#migrating-from-legacy-select-syntax)
- [Textarea migration
documentation](https://ionicframework.com/docs/api/textarea#migrating-from-legacy-textarea-syntax)

The highlight variables should then be moved from the item to the form
control:

```diff
- ion-item {
+ ion-input,
+ ion-textarea,
+ ion-select {
  --highlight-color-focused: purple;
  --highlight-color-valid: blue;
  --highlight-color-invalid: orange;
  --highlight-height: 6px;
}
```

> [!NOTE]
> The input and textarea components are scoped, which means they will
automatically scope their CSS by appending each of the styles with an
additional class at runtime. Overriding scoped selectors in CSS requires
a [higher
specificity](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/Specificity)
selector. Targeting the `ion-input` or `ion-textarea` for customization
will not work; therefore we recommend adding a class and customizing it
that way.
