The USWDS usa-site-alert package only supports the info color variation. This is probably intentional because the site alert docs don't show other alert colors being options.
I'm assuming we want more flexibility to be able to use site wide alerts for warning, success, and error too. For that reason, I needed to add those colors here. At a minimum, I am aware of info and warning currently being used on vets-website. I'm not sure if success or error are wanted/needed but I'm including them in the styles for completeness.

The full-width prop already existed but it was not being used anymore. Maybe this happened when we transitioned to USWDS v3?
Anyway, I'm using it again but I'm unsure about the original description:
If true, the alert will be full width. Should be for emergency communication only.
Should "emergency communication" be updated to something like "urgent information" instead? I'm just looking at the USWDS site alert docs for guidance for that wording but I'll need feedback from the team to confirm.

I'm making an assumption that we still want aria-label and role on the parent element but I'm not totally sure that's correct now because the full width version is wrapped in a section element instead of a div.

Description
This PR will add the USWDS alignment style and markup for a full-width site alert. This is activated when the
full-widthprop is set. Alert content will then align with the site width. Otherwise, the alert content will align left.Since internally
va-banneris just a wrapper forva-alert, this functionality will extend to that component too.Closes department-of-veterans-affairs/vets-design-system-documentation#3545
