1804771 - Change moz-toggle implementation to use a button with `role="switch`

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: UI Widgets, enhancement)

Description

[Hanna Jones [:hjones]]

Our initial toggle implementation was based on using a checkbox input, but since we've started trying to use it in a few places in the Firefox codebase it has become clear that what we're trying to implement is more of a toggle button. We do not support the use case of having an indeterminate or mixed state, and we always expect actions to occur immediately when the toggle is clicked, rather than waiting on a form submit. To express this more clearly, we will switch the toggle to be a button with role="switch" and with an aria-pressed attribute.
