fix(material-experimental/mdc-button): set proper touch target (#22931)

This is a reimplementation of #22846 which includes a fix for RTL layouts.

Adds some styles to ensure that the MDC-based button always has a touch target of at least 48px. Note that I decided against using MDC's built-in touch target class, because it would've added a margin on the button host node.

Fixes #22799.

(cherry picked from commit 3284496)
