[A11Y] Add focus ring mixin to restore ring to elements which no longer have it (#2814)

* Add focus ring mixin

These mixins allow us to restore default browser focus rings on elements which no longer have them.

* Add info about custom outline styles; use `#private` namespace and fix mixin name

I just learned that Less has namespaces! https://lesscss.org/features/#mixins-feature-namespaces
