Fix InputDecorator default hint text style on M3 (#148944)
## Description

This PRs makes the `InputDecoration.hintText` style compliant with the M3 spec.
The hint style is not clearly specified in https://m3.material.io/components/text-fields/specs, but it is in the M3 Figma kit.
('hint' terminology came from the Material1 specification, since M2 the terminology is 'Placeholder').

See this Figma screenshot taken while focusing on the 'Placeholder' text (which corresponds to hint).

It seems that the intention is that the 'Placeholder' colors should be the same as the 'supporting text' ones, that is why is reused 'supporting text' tokens.

Token Defaults Generator

Script that generates component theme data defaults based on token data.

Usage

Run this program from the root of the git repository:

dart dev/tools/gen_defaults/bin/gen_defaults.dart [-v]

This updates generated/used_tokens.csv and the various component theme files.

Templates

There is a template file for every component that needs defaults from the token database. These templates are implemented as subclasses of TokenTemplate. This base class provides some utilities and a structure for adding a new block of generated code to the bottom of a given file.

Templates need to override the generate method to provide the generated code block as a string.

See lib/fab_template.dart for an example that generates defaults for the Floating Action Button.

Tokens

Tokens are stored in JSON files in data/, and are sourced from an internal Google database.

template.dart should provide nearly all useful token resolvers (e.g. color, shape, etc.). For special cases in which one shouldn't be defined, use getToken to get the raw token value. The script, through the various revolvers and getToken, validates tokens, keeps track of which tokens are used, and generates generated/used_tokens.csv.
