Do contrast pass across all platforms for standard text.

Original value of #c3adad looks okay to me, particularly in Atom, where I started this theme. (The chromium/webkit render makes the fonts look nice and extra thick, which helps a lot of readability).

This level of low contrast is really good for my eyes, but it's too low for some people. Also, this low-low contrast is extra troublesome on other platforms, especially VS Code see this issue for reference.

Currently testing value #ba989c on some platforms. It maybe actually be darker than I would like as a global implementation, but it at least seems to be good for VS Code. I want to test colors in several editors on multiple monitors before making a final decision.

Original/current color for standard text: #c3adad Currently testing color for standard text: #ba989c

doing some local testing of new values

currently testing:

#bfa4a4

testing this in a few apps (Atom, iTerm, and VS Code). it seems to work for my goals (suitable aesthetic, enough contrast to be legible, colors flow together and other highlight colors still pop out well). i'll give it some working time to see how i feel.

it's far from passing accessibility standards, but the intent of this theme is to be low-contrast (personally, i can't handle looking at high-contrast themes for very long—tho ofc welcome to collaborating on a high-contrast variant if ppl are into that).

#ba989c is currently in the VS Code theme, because VC Code really needed higher contrast ASAP. However, because of the combination of darker value + being more saturated, the other highlight colors don't pop out well in comparison to my eyes and i start to lose the syntax highlighting in a jumble.

hmm idea: could possibly use #ba989c as a new "emphasized text" color
