Add high contrast checkbox for frame colors

Akseli Lahtinen requested to merge work/akselmo/less-intense-frames into master

NOTE:

This MR is now split into 3 of it's own MR's to make it easier to review. Old text below is still accurate:

  1. !395 (merged)
  2. !396 (merged)
  3. !397

The current frame coloring is quite intense, adding to the "heaviness" of the look.

What we could do is make the frames less intense by default, but give user the ability to set the frames to a higher contrast color with a checkbox.

If this change goes through, I will also modify the window outlines to follow same settings.

This will also help in future if we decide to make the separator/outline colors customizable. But I think even modifying the intensity of them will be very helpful for keeping Breeze looking fresh, yet allowing the high-contrast theme users set it brighter.

Before New default High Contrast

If you have any better wording in mind, do share 😄

Current todo:

  • Create high-contrast checkbox
  • Default color bias is 0.15
  • High contrast color bias is 0.6
  • Fix window decorations to have exact same settings + outline off
