feat(css): Add support for scrollbar thin

Miguel Rinconrequested to merge
mrincon-add-scrollbar-thin-util into main

What does this MR do?

This new utility class allows users to define a subtle scrollbar for small elements that still require scrolling (e.g. mobile).

Why this change?

While working in tabs migration I realized that we needed to migrate the CSS util class to have more "subtle" scrollbars, which can be used in small scrollable areas.

While such areas are rare, there are some areas (such as tabs) where they are useful.

See gitlab!69298 (comment 665412580) for more background on UX discussion.
