Re: [csswg-drafts] Add "show interest" and "lose interest" hover delays to CSS (#9236)

I'd like to bring this issue back around for discussion. Based on the [last discussion](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/9236#issuecomment-2289301749), plus a bit of evolution of the [explainer](https://open-ui.org/components/interest-invokers.explainer/#mousekeyboard-delays), we might be able to get a resolution. In particular:

The current proposal is:

```
interest-target-show-delay = <time># 
interest-target-hide-delay = <time># 
interest-target-delay = <time>{1,2}
```

One open question is the naming, obviously. If we want to re-use these properties (perhaps without re-using the `interesttarget` API under the covers) for [`::tooltip`](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/8930), then maybe we need a slightly more generic set of names?

Another open question is the default value. In the explainer I propose a default value of `0.5s` for reasons, but I could also see a natural default value of `0s`.
