* Re-encode over-encoded theme backgrounds
Several backgrounds shipped at quality 95-100, which buys nothing visible
on a wallpaper but costs 20 MB. Re-encode those at quality 85, leaving
resolution untouched -- every file keeps its original pixel dimensions.
Only files stored above quality 90 are touched, and only when the result
saves at least 15% and stays above 38 dB PSNR against the original. The
34 backgrounds already stored at quality 85 or below are left alone
rather than pushed through another lossy generation for a few hundred KB.
osaka-jade/2-shaded-entrance is skipped for that reason: nothing clears
both bars. ristretto/2-coffee-beans is re-encoded at 90 instead of 85,
where 85 fell below the PSNR floor.
Theme backgrounds drop from 107 MB to 87 MB.

* Store nord's night-hawks background as a palette PNG
The file uses only 8 distinct colors but was saved as truecolor RGB,
costing 1.8 MB for an image an indexed palette stores in half the space.
Converting to a palette PNG is lossless: same dimensions, and zero pixels
differ from the original.
1782 KB -> 909 KB.
The other palette-eligible PNGs are already indexed, and re-compressing
them with ImageMagick only makes them bigger, so they are left alone.

* Recompress theme PNGs losslessly with oxipng
Every background PNG was left at its authoring tool's default deflate
settings. Running oxipng over them re-packs the same pixels: all 31 files
decode bit-for-bit identically (AE=0) at unchanged resolution, for 981 KB.

* Store photographic backgrounds as JPEG instead of PNG
Four backgrounds were shipped as PNG despite being photographs and
painterly illustrations, where lossless coding buys nothing the eye can
see. Re-encoding them at the same q85 used by the other backgrounds keeps
every pixel dimension and stays above 40 dB PSNR, for 3.3 MB.
The remaining PNGs stay PNG: JPEG is larger for the dot patterns and the
flat-shaded pieces, and 0-launch.png genuinely uses its alpha channel.

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.

* 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.

* No longer used by walker to cancel
* Explain why
* Remove redundant const
* Consistent const naming
* No longe have $THEMES_DIR
* Correct the blue

* 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
* Add a new theme called hackerman
* Update to follow the Omarchy hot reload
* Add high res wallpapers
* Add an initial vscode color scheme
* Excess CR
