feat: update handling of base styles

[shadcn]

Base layer styles (@layer base, tw-animate-css import) were previously hardcoded in updateBaseLayerPlugin, a PostCSS plugin that ran on every shadcn add command. This moves them to the registry:style item's css field, for instance new-york, making them registry-driven and decoupled from the CLI.

The CLI no longer injects the following base layer styles:

@layer base {
  * {
    @apply border-border outline-ring/50;
  }
  body {
    @apply bg-background text-foreground;
  }
}

Test

Use the following command to test:

npx shadcn@3.8.5-beta.0 init
