1866649 - Remove `--brand-color-accent` and `--platform-color-accent` in favor of `--color-accent-primary` usage

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Themes, task)

Description

[Jules Simplicio [:jules]]

--platform-color-accent and --brand-color-accent are tokens that store the platform (operating system) and brand accent colors under tokens-platform.css and tokens-brand.css respectively.

Under tokens-platform.css, the token that stores our UI's primary accent, --color-accent-primary, is assigned to --platform-color-accent, while under tokens-brand.css, --color-accent-primary is assigned to --brand-color-accent.

Since the --color-accent-primary token source alone implies whether it comes from the brand or platform system, these two extra tokens cause an unnecessary step. Our tokens system implies that if a token value is not coming from tokens-shared.css, then it has different values between the brand and platform contexts. Let's get rid of the --platform-color-accent and --brand-color-accent tokens and simply rely on --color-accent-primary.
