fix(material/schematics): estimate missing hues in M3 schematic (#29231)

We use `@material/material-color-utilities` to generate the palettes in the M3 `ng generate` schematic, but it appears that the utilities don't generate all the neutral hues for some colors which leads to transparent dropdowns (see #29157). We handle this in our built in palettes by estimating the missing hues based on the hues around them.

These changes port the estimation logic to the schematic to ensure that we always generate full themes.

Fixes #29157.
