Legibility problem between headers and sub-items

In new launcher, if you click on Places, you will find that headers foreground and background colors are the same as sub-items ones and they have the same font size, this make it difficult to differentiate between headers and sub-items without reading the whole headers labels. Headers need some different background/foreground colors and difference font size/style to make them more recognizable. See attached image for info.

[applets/kickoff] Make section headers more section headery

The header text uses a PlasmaExtras.Header component, but with the same
size as the text of the list items. We typically use larger text for
section headers to distinguish them. So let's do that.
FIXED-IN: 5.21.4
