feat(accordion): exclusive variant to prevent nesting styles

[lubber-de]

Description

A new exclusive variant prevents nested accordions to inherit the styles of their parents.
So, you are now free to use exclusive styles for each nested accordion.

Everything is backward compatible. Just add the exclusive class to any accordion (doesn't matter if the root accordion or any child) to prevent the style nesting.

Changes

Accordion exclusive styling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Exclusive selector contract src/themes/default/globals/variation.variables, src/definitions/modules/accordion.less	The default theme enables the accordion exclusive variation. Accordion LESS defines @notExclusive for conditional selector filtering.
Nested selector filtering src/definitions/modules/accordion.less	Styled, compact, very compact, fluid, inverted, basic-styled, and tree nested selectors exclude exclusive accordions when the variation is enabled. Top-level selectors remain unchanged.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 199df

Nested accordions can still inherit parent styling despite using the exclusive variant, especially across multiple nesting levels, causing incorrect visual behavior. The PR is not merge-ready until the selectors enforce isolation at every level and the multi-level case is covered.

In `@src/definitions/modules/accordion.less`:
- Around line 175-179: Constrain the root-level accordion selectors in the
styled, compact, active, very compact, inverted, and tree sections to direct
children so they do not match content inside exclusive nested accordions. Update
selectors such as the active title and title-sibling content rules to use
direct-child combinators, and add the `@notExclusive` filter to the tree margin
selector; preserve the existing nested filtered declarations.
- Around line 273-283: Update the nested accordion selectors around the inverted
title and styled rules so a non-exclusive accordion cannot style content through
an intermediate .exclusive accordion at any nesting depth; constrain matching to
the immediate accordion/content relationship or exclude paths with an exclusive
ancestor. Add a three-level regression case covering a non-exclusive root,
exclusive child, and non-exclusive grandchild.
