Draw the UI debug overlay using the UI renderer (#16693)
# Objective

Draw the UI debug overlay using the UI renderer.

Significantly simpler and easier to use than
`bevy_dev_tools::ui_debug_overlay` which uses `bevy_gizmos`.
* Supports multiple windows and UI rendered to texture.
* Draws rounded debug rects for rounded UI nodes. 

Fixes #16666

## Solution

Removed the `ui_debug_overlay` module from `bevy_dev_tools`.

Added a `bevy_ui_debug` feature gate.

Draw the UI debug overlay using the UI renderer.
Adds a new module `bevy_ui::render::debug_overlay`. 

The debug overlay extraction function queries for the existing UI layout
and then adds a border around each UI node with `u32::MAX / 2` added to
each stack index so it's drawn on top.

There is a `UiDebugOptions` resource that can be used to enable or
disable the debug overlay and set the line width.

## Testing

The `testbed_ui` example has been changed to use the new debug overlay:

```
cargo run --example testbed_ui --features bevy_ui_debug
```

Press Space to toggle the debug overlay on and off.

## Migration Guide

The `ui_debug_overlay` module has been removed from `bevy_dev_tools`.
There is a new debug overlay implemented using the `bevy_ui` renderer.
To use it, enable the `bevy_ui_debug` feature and set the `enable` field
of the `UiDebugOptions` resource to `true`.
