chore(status-light): refactor with abstracted base class

[rubencarvalho]

Overview

This PR refactors the sp-status-light component to separate its base logic from rendering code, following the technical specifications for the Swan migration preparation. This is a purely internal change with no customer impact.

Changes Made

File Structure Changes

• Created: New packages/status-light/src/StatusLight.base.ts as the base class for Status light component.

Code Separation

StatusLightBase (Abstract Base Class)

• Location: packages/status-light/src/StatusLight.base.ts
• Contains:
  • Property declarations
  • All base functionality except rendering

StatusLight (Concrete Class)

• Location: packages/status-light/src/StatusLight.ts
• Contains:
  • Class that extends StatusLightBase
  • Rendering logic (render() method)
  • Styles import and declaration

Impact

Customer Impact

• None - This is a purely internal refactoring
• Public API remains identical
• No visual or behavioural changes
• No breaking changes

Developer Impact

• None - Existing imports and usage patterns continue to work
• import { StatusLight } from '@spectrum-web-components/status-light' still works
• All existing component usage remains valid

Migration Preparation

This refactoring prepares the badge component for future migration to the Swan architecture by:

1. Separating concerns - Base logic vs. rendering logic
2. Preserving git history - Base logic in StatusLight.base.ts will carry forward
3. Maintaining compatibility - Public API unchanged
4. Following established patterns - Consistent with other component refactoring
