perf(styles): compress distributed global stylesheets (#29275)
Issue number: N/A
---------
<!-- 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. -->
Ionic Framework developers make extensive use of multi-line comments in
the Sass files. However these comments are not stripped from the
generated output.
This leads to a significant increase to the file size of CSS and can
have an impact on runtime performance.
For example: https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@ionic/core/css/core.css has
183 lines of comment blocks before a single line of CSS.
## What is the new behavior?
<!-- Please describe the behavior or changes that are being added by
this PR. -->
- Compresses the generated output from Sass → CSS to strip out
multi-line comment blocks.
- Developers can use [loud
comments](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/syntax/comments/) if they
want to include comments in the generated output.
- In the case of just the core.css file, the file size goes from 20kb to
10kb.
- The entire CSS global styles goes from 758 KB to 606kb.
