Subject: [PATCH] Light mode: ticket-ID hover preview follows the theme (#23)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

.ticket-preview-popup used var(--lt-surface), which is not defined anywhere, so
the background always fell through to the hardcoded #0a0e14. In light mode that
left a near-black panel — and since the rule set no `color`, the inherited
near-black body text was effectively invisible on it. The border was hardcoded
neon green and the shadow a heavy rgba(0,0,0,0.5).

Now uses --bg-card / --text-primary / --accent-green-border / --shadow-color,
and .preview-id uses --accent-cyan instead of the undefined --lt-cyan.

base.css gains the two tokens the light theme was missing (--accent-green-border
and --shadow-color), synced from web_template 0d633bd.

Verified with computed styles in headless chromium: light body-text contrast on
the panel goes from invisible to 17.7:1, dark stays at 13.2:1, and the ID accent
clears 3:1 in both themes.
