Paul HittandClaude Opus 5 87e96761cc The kit's palette, not just its layout
I kept Flamenet orange and defended it as brand continuity. That was
wrong on the facts: the orange had already been retired and the public
pages carry none of it, so the apps were the last thing wearing a brand
colour the brand had dropped — on the authority of a comment in
Theme.kt that nobody had rechecked. The comment is corrected in place
so nobody restores it for the same stale reason.

The values are measured out of the Sketch file rather than sampled from
a render. The two text colours are the ones that actually appear in its
symbols — #090710 on 165 text layers, #505C69 on 164 — and the accent
#2298FF is what it uses at 12pt as well as on buttons, so it is their
link colour and not only a fill.

The constants were called Ember and held orange. They are Accent now:
a constant named for a colour it no longer holds is how a palette
drifts back.

⚠️ Recorded because it will come up: #2298FF on white is about 3.3:1 —
fine for a bold button label, not for small text. The small text on
these screens is grey, and it needs to stay that way.

Also in this commit, the Android sign-in takes the kit's Welcome
layout: a logo mark, a 40pt greeting and one line saying what this is,
centred with room above them. It was a 24pt product name jammed against
a Server field, which is the shape of a login dialog rather than the
first thing anyone sees of the app. The submit button is 240 wide and
centred, as the kit draws it — a button spanning the phone reads as the
bottom of a form; one that does not reads as a choice.
