Expected Behavior

Method names and get signatures rendered by TypeDoc should have sufficient contrast in light mode.

Actual Behavior

At present, some content is difficult to read in light mode due to low contrast:

For example, properties with color --light-color-ts-method have contrast 2.72:1 with the background in the default theme.

Steps to reproduce the bug

To reproduce:

1. Generate documentation for a project.
2. Switch to TypeDoc's light theme (if not already enabled).
3. Inspect the color contrast for a method name.

An example repository that reproduces the issue can be found here.

... well that's annoying, when looking at the PR with that commit I thought it was copying the colors rather than referencing everything, not changing colors.
