Improved contrast for badge elements

We improved the badge element contrast to pass Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) AAA (enhanced contrast) accessibility audits. Previously, they only met the standard on AA (minimum contrast) requirement.

On top of that, we also slightly amended the appearance of badges to give a more soft, rounded feeling. You can see them in action on the Snapshots list, Snapshot page, and Budgets.

We’ll continue evaluating and improving contrast and other accessibility features across Calibre.
