    style(tui): restore Australis, $background → pure black (v0.6.3)

    Reverts v0.6.2's over-correction. The operator clarified: the
    complaint was specifically about the APP BACKGROUND going from
    black to a shade of blue, not about the cumulative cast across
    all Australis dark surfaces. v0.6.2 globally neutralized Ice + Sea
    darks → too far.

    v0.6.3 = v0.6.1 palette + $background override only

    Restored verbatim from v0.6.1:

    $foreground #a9bcc3 (Ice white)
    $surface #373b46 (Sea bright-black, chrome bg)
    $panel #414751 (Sea dark 30, borders)
    $au-dark-30..60 Australis Sea palette
    $au-bright-70/80 Australis Sea brights
    $au-bright-white #cce7ec (Ice highlight)
    Aurora accents bright-blue/cyan/green — verbatim
    Dawn accents red/yellow — verbatim
    _AU_DEMOTED #86929d (Sea dark 60)
    _AU_DEMOTED_FAINT #6e7882 (Sea dark 50)

    ONE deviation from Australis spec:

    $background #222531 (Ice black) → #000000 (pure black)

    Rationale: Ice black is RGB(34, 37, 49) — blue +44% over red. At
    App-wide scale (the dominant fill across the entire screen) the
    cumulative cast reads as "the app is blue" even though no single
    rect is in the conventional-blue range. Other dark surfaces are
    smaller chrome bands where the cool lean reads as character not
    background; only $background gets the override.

    What stayed Australis

    Every cosmetic element where the operator hasn't pushed back:
    identity widget (Aurora bright-blue), pane-name (Aurora bright-cyan),
    [done]/[error]/[cancelled] labels (Aurora green / Dawn red/yellow),
    focus borders (Aurora blue / accent cyan), demoted telemetry text
    (Sea dark-60), placeholder lines (Sea dark-50), Header/Footer chrome
    (Sea bright-black bg + Ice white-blue fg), separators (Sea dark-30).

    Brand fidelity preserved; only the dominant background surface
    neutralized.

    Tests + smoke

    241/241 GREEN; ruff clean. Live screenshot export:

    • $background = #000000 (230 fill rects — dominant surface)
    • $surface = #373b46 (29 fill rects — Australis Sea bright-black)
    • Sea panels + dark-50 still present in chrome
    • Aurora #6388D8 still primary

    Patch bump (v0.6.2 → v0.6.3) — cosmetic refinement; no public-API
    change.
