Color contrast issues #104

Issue

Several areas of the Ladybird browser website have low color contrast.

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines says that text (and images of text) should have an appropriate contrast ratio -- defined in WCAG 2.2 section 1.4.3: https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG22/#contrast-minimum. This helps people with visual impairments who use the website as some may struggle with insufficient contrast.

It's a relatively easy thing to fix. It could be addressed by subtly changing the foreground text colour. For example, the footer text could be changed from to #404040 #757575. This would allow it to pass at the AA level.

I'm happy to have a look at some of the contrast issues.
