Description
### Describe the bug
I'm running from Windows Terminal. Even setting the theme to high contrast, the difference between the background, the selected text background, and the text is not great:
Using the default theme, it's even worse:
### Affected version
Copilot CLI v1.0.22
### Steps to reproduce the behavior
1. copilot
2. select some text in the session
### Expected behavior
I'd like to have the same behavior as Windows Terminal:
### Additional context
This is Windows, running Terminal, in PowerShell 7.4.14. Color Scheme is Campbell

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with the `copilot` command in Windows Terminal under PowerShell 7.4.14, then trace the session text-selection rendering. The work is done when selected text has contrast comparable to Windows Terminal in both the default and high-contrast themes, with coverage for the reported case if the project provides a relevant test entry point.
