Description

Fixes #2328

Collapsed sidebar filter facets should indicate if a value is selected

Instructions for Reviewers

When users apply multiple filters on the /search page, they often collapse individual facets. This makes it difficult to track which filters are active without expanding each section.

Expected Behavior

Sidebar filter facets should clearly indicate if they're "active", especially when they're collapsed.

List of Changes in this PR:

• Added a variable $highlightColor: rgba(30, 111, 144, 0.3) !default in src/styles/_bootstrap_variables.scss
• Mapped --bs-highlight-color: #{$highlightColor} in src/styles/_bootstrap_variables_mapping.scss
• Added background color (--bs-highlight-color) when checkbox is checked in ds-search-filter in src/styles/_global-styles.scss

Steps to Test and Reproduce the Behavior:

On the /search page, when you select a checkbox within a filter, the filter becomes active. If you collapse the filter, it remains active as long as a checkbox is selected. If no checkbox is selected, the filter is not activated.
