[puckowski]

What:

• Fix issue Small media query parsing bug #4356 issue with parenthesis in media query.
• Add tests for issue Small media query parsing bug #4356.

Why:

This Less:

@media ((color) and (hover)), all { 
  body {
    background: green;
  }
}

results in Parsing error, missing closing ')',

The syntax is valid CSS so it should be supported. (Per: https://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator)

Checklist:

• Documentation
• Added/updated unit tests
• Code complete

Summary by CodeRabbit

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes enhance media feature parsing in the LESS parser with more robust closing parenthesis tracking using a local closed flag, and introduce corresponding test cases for complex nested media query conditions combining color and hover states.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Parser Logic packages/less/lib/less/parser/parser.js	Enhanced media feature parsing with a closed flag to track parenthesis closure. Falls back to nested mediaFeature parsing if inner parse doesn't close, and conditionally constructs either Paren/QueryInParens or Paren/Expression nodes based on closure state. Improves error signaling for malformed media feature definitions.
Test Cases packages/test-data/tests-unit/media/media.css, packages/test-data/tests-unit/media/media.less	Added test cases for complex nested media queries: @media ((color) and (hover)), all { body { background: green; } } to validate the enhanced parser behavior with combined media conditions.

Poem

🐰 Parentheses nested deep and wide,
With flags to track what's closed inside,
Media queries dance with grace,
Colors hovering in their place!
