What's new
New: Theme color selector
Added a "Theme color" option to the on-device settings menu, with 8 choices: Green (default), Blue, Red, Orange, Purple, Cyan, Yellow, White.
The selected color drives the two progress arcs (top and bottom gauges); numerals and labels stay white for readability.
Built a dimColor() helper that normalizes any chosen hue to the same AOD brightness ceiling — so picking White or Yellow doesn't push the always-on display past the safe luminance limit. Verified in the simulator: White (worst case) measured 6.54% luminance, essentially the same as Green's 6.42%, both comfortably under the 10% AMOLED cap.
