Description
### Is this a regression?
- [ ] Yes, this behavior used to work in the previous version
### The previous version in which this bug was not present was
_No response_
### Description
As per [Material 3 guidelines](https://m3.material.io/components/dialogs/specs), `container-color` should use value `surface-container-high` token, but it's using value `surface` token.
We can override it by using `dialog-overrides` mixin like below:
```scss
@include mat.dialog-overrides((
container-color: var(--mat-sys-surface-container-high),
));
```
But, it should be the default behaviour as per Material 3 specs.
### Reproduction
Not needed
### Expected Behavior
As per [Material 3 guidelines](https://m3.material.io/components/dialogs/specs), `container-color` should use value `surface-container-high` token.
### Actual Behavior
Dialog's `container-color` is using value `surface` token.
### Environment
- Angular: 19
- CDK/Material: 19
- Browser(s): Chrome
- Operating System (e.g. Windows, macOS, Ubuntu): Windows
Contributor guide
Research direction
No file or test is named. Locate the Angular Material dialog theming implementation and its existing tests, then compare the container-color token with the linked Material 3 dialog specification. Done means the default token uses surface-container-high and the relevant test coverage passes.
