There may be problems with color matching

After using the light theme, enter the following command and the numeric part will not be echoed.

eg1

curl 12132132 fsd.exe

The light theme is almost unreadable. I think the color mapping in incorrect; it shouldn't be as simple as swapping the background color.

There are several things moving right now which complicate things. PowerShell has been changing the way it references terminal colors and the console team has been changing things as well. When I started contributing to this project it was easy, PS 5 at most and conhost. Then with PSReadLine 2.0 there were some breaking changes, and PowerShell 7.2 is bringing more changes.

On Windows 10, the best way make this work today is to use Windows Terminal. The team even has Solarized built in. I think problems mapping the colors comes from one of the aforementioned changes.

@fbigun, if I don't understand the issue, please attach a screenshot (you can paste them directly into github) and please provide some context with respect to the OS, shell, terminal, and respective versions.
