[apollo79]

Description

• makes the font size and pill size dependent on the bar font size
• fixes an issue where the pills could get bigger than the widget itself (extend over the background)
• fixes text contrast for all kinds of colors (font color now depends on the pill color: secondary, tertiary, custom backgrounds, inactive)
• improved contrast for the inactive workspaces (higher text opacity)
• remove strong jitter when switching workspaces
• styling (opinionated): for the segmented style, fully round the corners of the active workspace
• improve readability of the window count badge (shown for inactive workspaces when multiple windows of the same app are open)
• add an option to always show the app icons at full opacity (because dimming them makes them look a bit dirty and often has bad contrast)
• increases opacity for inactive app icons to make them look less washed out and improve contrast with background
