Add solarized-light theme

Feature request
Please add a solarized-light theme to complement the existing solarized-dark theme.
The Solarized color scheme by Ethan Schoonover is designed as a dual-mode palette — light and dark variants share the same 8 accent colors but swap the base/background tones. Many terminal users prefer the light variant, and currently only solarized-dark is available.
Expected behavior
A solarized-light theme option appears in the /theme picker, using the standard Solarized light palette:
- Background:
#fdf6e3(base3) - Foreground:
#657b83(base00) - Accents: yellow
#b58900, orange#cb4b16, red#dc322f, magenta#d33682, violet#6c71c4, blue#268bd2, cyan#2aa198, green#859900
Motivation
Users with light terminal themes (e.g., solarized-light in iTerm2, Kitty, WezTerm) currently lack a matching Claude Code theme, which results in poor contrast or clashing colors.
