Deprecate `ThemeData.dialogBackgroundColor` in favor of `DialogThemeData.backgroundColor`
Summary
#The ThemeData.dialogBackgroundColor parameter was deprecated in favor of the DialogThemeData.backgroundColor parameter.
Context
#The defaults for the Dialog and AlertDialog widgets can be overridden with a component-specific theme like DialogThemeData. Previously, the ThemeData.dialogBackgroundColor parameter was used to override the default dialog background color, which was made redundant by DialogThemeData.
Description of change
#The ThemeData.dialogBackgroundColor is deprecated in favor of a component-specific theme. Use DialogThemeData to override the default background color.

dialogBackgroundColor: Colors.orange,
),Code after migration:
theme: ThemeData(
dialogTheme: const DialogThemeData(backgroundColor: Colors.orange),
),Timeline
