fix(tokens): review the generation of utility-classes (#30498)

Issue number: internal

---------

<!-- Please do not submit updates to dependencies unless it fixes an
issue. -->

<!-- Please try to limit your pull request to one type (bugfix, feature,
etc). Submit multiple pull requests if needed. -->

## What is the current behavior?
<!-- Please describe the current behavior that you are modifying. -->

Currently some utility-classes are not as effective as they could be,
because they don't affect, for example, the --background or --color css
API's.

## What is the new behavior?
<!-- Please describe the behavior or changes that are being added by
this PR. -->

- Changed the way the classes are generated, so that it affects the css
custom properties as well.
- Make the background classes to only be generated for the tokens that
contain 'bg'.
- Update the style for the body background on the ionic theme (this
triggered some snapshots differences).

## Does this introduce a breaking change?

- [ ] Yes
- [x] No

<!--
  If this introduces a breaking change:
1. Describe the impact and migration path for existing applications
below.
  2. Update the BREAKING.md file with the breaking change.
3. Add "BREAKING CHANGE: [...]" to the commit description when merging.
