Pop-ups are very hard to see #18516

Describe the bug / provide steps to reproduce it

Pop-ups such as "This file has changed on disk" are hard to notice if the file contains a log of text.

On my 32" 4K monitor, pop-ups in the middle of the screen may not be directly where I am looking at, especially if I am closing a file that I am not currently working in. My first reaction is then always "Oh, why is Zed freezing?" until I realise that a pop-up has opened and I just didn't notice it because it almost blends into the background.

Environment

Zed: v0.155.0 (Zed Dev) OS: Linux Wayland nixos 24.05 Memory: 60.6 GiB Architecture: x86_64 GPU: AMD Radeon Graphics (RADV GFX1103_R1) || radv || Mesa 24.0.7

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help explain present your vision of the feature

On MacOS Zed washes out everything behind the pop-up. We should probably do the same on Linux.
