UnderlineNav: Replace dynamic icon visibility logic with hardcoded breakpoints

[iansan5653]

Fixes#7823

This PR is an alternative approach to #8108 to resolvehttps://github.com/github/primer/issues/6806.

The problem is that some flickering is inevitable if we want to dynamically hide the icons: we have to let the container overflow in order to detect it and hide the icons, but then when we hide the icons the container no longer overflows. We can minimize flickering but we can never eliminate it with the dynamic approach. Dynamically hiding icons inherently creates an infinite feedback loop.

This PR proposes a simpler, less dynamic alternative: we just hide the icons at hardcoded breakpoints. The breakpoint at which icons are hidden can be controlled by a prop which allows for all the standard Primer breakpoint sizes. The default is very large to avoid breaking existing consumers (namely the global GitHub navigation), but it can easily be reduced by consumers who know they won't be rendering many tabs.

The result is a flicker-free, stable component. However, the drawback is that we sometimes will hide icons early than we would otherwise need to. I think this might be a fair tradeoff.

Also includes some other fixes:

1. Change overflow anchor button visibility to use display instead of visibility to avoid having to save space for it
2. Allow the first tab to wrap out of the way on very small screens by rendering an invisible first element
