Description

### Describe the bug

Image
Hardcoded background color breaks the light CMD theme.

### Affected version

GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.61.

### Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Set the light theme in Windows / Terminal
2. Run Github Copilot
3. Look at the screen

### Expected behavior

Allow reusing colors from Terminal Preview as many users set up the theme there.
Or, check if the Windows color scheme is light or dark before applying colors.
Many users are switching to light themes when working outdoors on a sunny day as the text is much better visible in such conditions.
