Loading states

The ContentCellFallback component provides loading state representations of ContentCell. It uses placeholder rectangles to indicate where content will appear, creating a smooth loading experience. Each placeholder can have its width determined by a predefined set of values, which can be selected using the rectWidthVariant prop. The web version uses percentage-based widths and custom layouts to match the ContentCell structure.
