Description

**Describe the bug**

Name and timestamp in chat window not legible with dark desktop themes.

**To Reproduce**

Switch your system settings to use a dark theme and see the names in the chat mostly disappear.

**Expected behavior**

Use a different palette for dark desktop themes.

**Operating system**
All, because the colours are hardcoded at the server which doesn't know about the client's desktop colour scheme

**Version of Jamulus**
