[PATCH] New selection indication and softer colors

[PATCH] New selection indication and softer colors

[Matthijs Melchior]

The default font was already bold, so marking the selected file with bold
font did not work.  Change that to lightgray background.
Also, the header colors are now softer, giving better readability.

This gives better colors on my Debian Gnome desktop.

I hope you like it too.

Thanks, this is actually kind of nice.  I've applied it to my
maint and pushed it out.  I feel a gitgui-0.7.3 coming real soon
(maint has 8 new commits on it already).
