David Heinemeier HanssonandClaude Fable 5 afa2839a5a Rename bg/fg palette keys to background/foreground
The canonical colors.toml keys are now background/foreground, including
all permutations (dark_background, darker_background, lighter_background,
dark_foreground, light_foreground, bright_foreground). The old short
names are gone entirely, not kept as aliases; legacy alacritty-generated
themes still resolve through the ANSI color0/color7 fallback.

Theme files are also regrouped: accent/selection/muted first, then the
backgrounds, then the foregrounds, then the named colors.

Luke HsiaoandGitHub d80c98f025 Make color0 distinct from background/foreground and fix helix theme (#5538)
* Make color0 distinct from background/foreground

The majority of themes have color0 available as a subtle offset from
the background. For flexoki-light, because color0 matched foreground, it
wasn't subtle, and would cause invisible text when used as a background
color (e.g., in text editor rulers). For vantablack, ethereal,
hackerman, and white, color0 matched background and would cause
invisible text when a theme wanted text to be de-emphasized.

This patch makes it consistently a subtle offset from background.

* Make helix selection theme colors more subtle

Helix is more usable if the selection background is subtle. This is
primarily because of [[1]], which makes a bright selection like we had
before often make the foreground text unreadable in the picker preview.

* Attempt to templaterize the theme specific files

* Cleanup

* Slim down

* Combine render into -set

* Pull out the dynamic template rendering again, but simpler

* Fix vars

* Variables are lowercase

* Better presentation

* Fix missing colors

* Provide stripped values too

* Fix colors for regular hex format

* Bring back explicit btop themes

They're too involved to derive from a basic color set

* Correct the blue

* Set opencode colors too

* Fix colors for readability

* Move the templates together with the others in default

* Split user themes and default themes

* Fix paths

* Look for both user themes and default themes

Plus speed things up

* Migrate to the new setup where default themes live inside omarchy

* Explicitly store the name of the current theme

* Cleanup

* No longer need omarchy-theme-next since themes are now fully rendered, not symlinks

* Get current theme name from the new theme.name file

* Look for user background images in dedicated directory

* Need yq for toml

* Need yq to parse colors.toml

* Look for backgrounds matching the new theme.name

We no longer have symlinks

* Migrate existing user backgrounds to the new proper location

* Install user backgrounds in the correct path

* Fix quoting

* Just rely on the system theme for opencode and get ready for USRSIG2 being available to live reload

* Fix template generation for rgb colors
