Description

Filed from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1650660.

![screenshot](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=9161484)

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:79.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/79.0

### Steps to reproduce:
* Record a performance profile from any site

### Actual results:
It's very hard to differentiate if a bar represents JavaScript, firefox internals, GCs or paintings. See the attached screenshot where the GC bar has nearly identical colors to the bars coming from JS code

### Expected results:
Use easy to distinguish colors to quickly recognize the different bar groups.
