Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Switch to SignPath release-signing (#194)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* Replace all muted/dim text brushes with foreground brushes for readability

Muted colors (#8B8FA0, #9B9EC0, #B0B6C0, #9DA5B4, #99E4E6EB) were too
hard to read. All visual text now uses the standard foreground color
(#E4E6EB) across XAML, code-behind, advice panel, charts, and slicers.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Switch to release-signing and add SignPath sponsor attribution

SignPath FOSS certificate approved — switch from test-signing to
release-signing policy and add required sponsor section to README.
