When a color is from a Figma variable that already contains alpha, the output was incorrectly adding an opacity modifier like /50. For example, a variable 'myVar' defined as rgba(255,0,0,0.5) was generating 'bg-myVar/50' instead of just 'bg-myVar'. The fix skips the opacity modifier when colorType is 'variable' since the alpha is already baked into the variable definition. Adding the modifier would incorrectly compound the opacity. Fixes bernaferrari#232

Problem
When a color is from a Figma variable that already contains alpha (e.g.,
rgba(255,0,0,0.5)), the Tailwind output was incorrectly adding an opacity modifier.Expected:
bg-myVarActual:
bg-myVar/50This is incorrect because:
/50compounds the opacity (50% of 50% = 25%)Solution
Skip the opacity modifier when
colorTypeis'variable'since the alpha is already baked into the variable definition.Changes made in
tailwindColor.ts:tailwindSolidColor(): Return early for variable colors without opacity suffixtailwindGradientStop(): Same fix for gradient stopsTesting
Fixes #232
