fix(skins): keep tinted badges readable on light skins, pin OG modals

The light skins themed the app chrome, but a class of status badges and
accent-tinted pills still hardcode pale light-on-dark ink (#cdddff,
#9dc0ff, #ffc107, #fff) over a low-alpha tint. Measured on a rendered
page, that lands at 1.0 to 1.9:1 under all four light skins: the search
filter chips (Sessions / Events / Files) render as empty blue pills.
Re-point the ink at each skin's own dark tokens and keep the tint as the
category signal, which moves the same components to 3.2 to 14:1.

Also pin --floating-bg on the OG skin. The new :root default is slate
rgba(31,38,48,.96), which suits the Daylight palettes (their glass
header is already rgba(31,38,48,.85)) but repaints OG's modals, command
palette and floating windows away from the neutral near-black that skin
is built on.

Verified against a live instance across all seven skins, plus a real
shell session for terminal ANSI output. Full suite green.

Add four light UI and terminal skins—Paper Gray, Solarized Light, Catppuccin Latte, and Rosé Pine Dawn—with readable native controls, xterm palettes, and stateful mobile/response-viewer surfaces.
Add four light UI and terminal skins: Paper Gray, Solarized Light, Catppuccin Latte, and Rosé Pine Dawn. The Skin picker now groups Light and Dark options, and each light skin ships a matching xterm ANSI palette plus `color-scheme: light` so native selects, date pickers and scrollbars stop rendering as dark OS widgets on a light page. Terminals set `minimumContrastRatio: 4.5` under a light skin (main terminal and teammate terminals both), which keeps CLI output that assumes a dark background readable, and `applyTerminalSkin()` now refreshes the zero-lag input overlay so typed-but-unflushed text does not keep the previous theme's colors.
Elevated surfaces (modals, command palette, dropdowns, subagent and ultracode windows, file preview, attachment tray, mobile sheets) now resolve through shared `--floating-bg` / `--control-*` / `--banner-bg-*` / `--modal-backdrop` / `--elevated-shadow` tokens instead of hardcoded near-black rgba, so they follow whichever skin is active. On the Daylight skins this lifts modals slightly off the page background; OG Codeman pins its own near-black value to keep that palette neutral.
Also defines twelve CSS compatibility aliases (`--bg-primary`, `--bg-secondary`, `--bg-tertiary`, `--text-primary`, `--text-secondary`, `--border-color`, `--accent-color`, `--success`, `--error`, `--danger`, `--font-mono`, `--shadow-lg`) that panels and overlays already referenced in about 79 places but which were never actually declared, so those rules silently resolved to nothing. Status badges and accent-tinted pills (search filter chips and result badges, session tab mode pills, respawn state, Ralph priority and circuit-breaker badges, tunnel and voice status, mobile case picker) no longer keep their pale light-on-dark ink under a light skin, where it measured 1.0 to 1.9:1 and made the search filter chips invisible.
New static regression `test/skin-themes.test.ts` guards the four-way parity between the CSS token block, the xterm palette, the pre-paint allowlist and the Settings picker.
