Matched brackets highlight

SUMMARY

Currently, matching brackets highlight only changes the background color, but leaves the foreground color unchanged. And if background and foreground colors are approximately similar (and sometimes they are absolutely similar, see attached screenshot), then it looks bad. It's necessary to improve the matched brackets highlight, for example, change the foreground color to an inverted background color or use another decoration style.

Comment 1 Waqar Ahmed 2022-01-18 12:43:15 UTC 
Colors are specified by the theme and KTextEditor respects whatever the theme specifies. If the colors are specified in a way that nothing will be visible, then its theme's fault not the renderer's. As such, any coloring fixes should go to respective themes.
