Current behavior 😯

When trying to set the Textfield color property to "primary.dark" or "secondary.light" it breaks the entire component. Currently it is only limited to one level deep in the theme palette like "primary" or "secondary" which is very limiting to like 4 colors.
Plus I cant find any other way to get the same requirement.

Expected behavior 🤔

The Textfield color property should accept values from more than one level deep in the theme palette.

Research direction

Start with the TextField color prop and reproduce the failure using the linked CodeSandbox, focusing on how values such as primary.dark and secondary.light are resolved from the theme palette. The payload names no repository file or test; done means nested palette values work without breaking the component.
