use a bit lighter colors for the default css style

Steffen Michels requested to merge colors into master

What does this MR do?

This changed the default colour scheme of iTasks and makes it a bit lighter. As an example, I give screenshots of VIIA:

The main reason for the change is that the current scheme gives a non-modern feeling (e.g. https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/wnr/images/7/78/Windows_95_legacy_desktop.png/revision/latest?cb=20211014220520). I don't want to use a colour as default scheme, as such scheme may not be generally useful, but using lighter colours takes away a bit of that old-school feeling for me. Also, this gives a better contrast between text and the background.

Author's checklist (required)

See CONTRIBUTING.md for the rationale behind these items:

  • The commit history does not contain merges (use git rebase -i master if it does)
  • Intermediate commits compile (use git rebase -i master if not)
  • Newly added code follows the Platform code style
  • Newly added code is documented
  • If bugs have been solved, tests have been added
  • Appropriate types have been used, especially in APIs
  • If efficiency is part of the acceptance criteria of the issue, a benchmark is provided
  • A changelog entry has been added if required. See CONTRIBUTING.md
