Owner's call after two days of iterating on the theme.

Unpicks the ten (iOS) / nine (Android) commits that took the apps from the site-derived blue palette to purple-into-black dark-only. Back to primary #2298FF, Color(light:dark:) throughout, and the app follows the system again instead of being locked dark.

Deliberately not reverted, because these rode in on theme commits without being theme work:

  • AppStoreShotsUITests.swift — the App Store screenshot harness. Reverting it broke the UITest target's build; restored from main.
  • PillTabBar's ground backstop and safe-area inset — painting the ground once centrally is what stopped Files and Wallet shipping without one, and the inset is what stopped Account's Sign out sitting unreachable under the pill. Kept, pointed at the flat background.
  • Android: the same for MainActivity's Surface and CallScreen.

iOS 764 tests pass; Android 574 pass. Both rendered and looked at, not just compiled.

Android 0.11 is already published with the dark theme. Anyone who installed it will see the app change appearance again on the next release, and that release needs a version bump to reach them.
