rP84aff44bcd64: Add a "Red/Green Colorblind" accessibility mode, make all web UIs and email…

Summary

Fixes T12172. Fixes T12060. This allows runtime code building CSS for mail to read CSS variables, then makes all the code do that.

It reverts the non-colorblind red/green to the colors in use before T12060, which seem better for non-colorblind users since no one really complained?

Test Plan

Viewed code diffs in Web UI.
Viewed prose diffs in Web UI.
Viewed code diffs in email.

All modes respected the accessibility color scheme.

Waiting on real colors (or, at least, colors with a better chance of working) from T12172.

I'm ready to ship this and iterate. I miss the old colors.

Label this mode "Deuteranopia" explicitly because there are 4+ types of red/green colorblindness (?) but these colors were picked based on users with deuteranopia, from what I can determine in T12060 (and are possibly worse for users with protanomaly, per T12172).
