"Black"/dark baseplates should be brighter #5797

~Some of our icons with black/dark greyish baseplates with a gradient which is supposed to span from 20L (bottom) to 24L(top) [for a 0...100 lightness scale] have the bottom stop coloured #303030 (which in fact is 19L) instead of the correct value #333333.~

See discussion in #5796.

Our darkest baseplate now span from 24/100L (#3d3d3d) to 28/100L (#474747). Anything darker is considered a bug.

I think our darkest icons should be quite a bit brighter still, when viewed alongside "non-dark" icons lightning seems off. I'm referring to dark grey as well as tinted baseplates.
