Danny White b10511052d fix(ui): share raised styling across dropdown triggers (#50830)
## Problem

Select, combobox and empty multi-select triggers use a flat border
treatment, while the default Button has a raised surface and shadow.
This makes dropdown controls look inconsistent when closed.

## Solution

Share the existing Button shadow variables and raised surface classes
with the select trigger CVA. SelectTrigger and ComboboxTrigger keep
their own layout, focus, and disabled behaviour.

The multi-select shares the raised surface when empty and keeps a sunk
field surface for selected chips. Static size classes keep its empty and
single-row selected states at the same height; wrapped badges can still
grow. The caret stays aligned as values are selected. Select, Combobox
and Multi-select share Button's size-specific corner radii. Button's
existing styling is preserved.

## Review instructions

1. Open the design system
[Select](https://design-system-git-dnywh-dropdown-trigger-surface-supabase.vercel.app/design-system/docs/components/select),
[Combobox](https://design-system-git-dnywh-dropdown-trigger-surface-supabase.vercel.app/design-system/docs/components/combobox)
and
[Multi-select](https://design-system-git-dnywh-dropdown-trigger-surface-supabase.vercel.app/design-system/docs/fragments/multi-select)
examples.
2. Compare the closed surfaces and corner radii with a default Button,
then check hover, focus and open states.
3. Select one or two multi-select items. Check that a single row remains
the same height as the empty control, the caret stays aligned and the
chip field remains distinct. Add enough items to check wrapping.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

## Summary

* **Style**
* Default buttons display a raised surface with a subtle shadow and
size-appropriate rounded corners.
* Select and combobox triggers share a raised, card-like appearance,
with consistent shadows and rounded corners at small sizes. Invalid
select triggers display a border.
* Empty multi-select controls use a raised surface, while controls with
selected values use a field-style surface.
* Small and tiny multi-select controls have updated spacing and sizing
in empty and selected states.
