Gildas Garcia bfb0737d14 Fix to ensure labels, descriptions and validation errors are correctly linked to their inputs (#50080)
## Problem

`FormItemLayout` does not correctly binds inputs descriptions and
validation messages to their inputs. This is because the input ids are
generated and not correctly propagated to the `FormMessage` and
`FormDescription` components. Besides, we still pass `name` or `id`
directly to the inputs or `FormItemLayout` in some places.

## Solution

- Fix `FormItemLayout` to correctly binds inputs descriptions and
validation messages to their inputs
- Fix incorrect usages
- Fix Design System documentation

## How to test

The issue is visible in production:
- Open https://supabase.com/design-system/docs/ui-patterns/forms
- Open the devtool and check the labels `for`, the description `id` and
the input `id` or `aria-describedby` attributes. You'll see they often
don't match

Do the same on staging:
- Open
https://design-system-git-fix-a11y-form-input-descriptions-supabase.vercel.app/design-system/docs/ui-patterns/forms
- Open the devtool and check the labels `for`, the description `id` and
the input `id` or `aria-describedby` attributes. They now match

Dashboard fixes:
-
https://studio-staging-git-fix-a11y-form-input-descriptions-supabase.vercel.app/dashboard/account/tokens:
_Expires in_ select button is now correctly linked to its label
-
https://studio-staging-git-fix-a11y-form-input-descriptions-supabase.vercel.app/dashboard/account/me:
the switches are now correctly linked to their label
- In Database/Indexes: the select buttons when creating an index are now
correctly linked to their label
- All other changes are the same things

Supabase UI Patterns

This package should be used for components which are built using NPM libraries (react-markdown, reactflow for example), which make no sense to be included in all apps. It should also be used for components which are constructed using various components from the ui package.

This package does not have a barrel file - each component has to be imported from its index (ui-patterns/PrivacySettings, for example). This is intentional so that adding a new component which is used only in 1 or 2 apps doesn't burden the rest of the apps.
