Adjust colors for better "gut" readability. #4

Currently, these colors call more attention to less-high-priority glyphs.

For instance, composed glyphs get a super vivid blue, while glyphs-in-progress get a dull teal color. This gives composed glyphs way too much prominence.

In particular, it's difficult to find the best color for glyphs made from components. There are a lot of them, and they are nice to keep next to their parent glyphs (so it's easy to see if they're out-of-sync), but their color can easily drown out other marks.

I think gray is working best. It allows either white or any bright color to "pop" nicely.
