Accessibility issues: WDTK

[lucascumsille]

This pull request contains some fixes for accessibility issues found in the WDTK theme.

$color_blue is now a darker, richer version that passes the contrast test:

Items on subnav pass contrast test

Secondary button a bit darker

Increase vertical padding for list items on help page

When creating a new request the footer notes now pass the contrast test

Fixes part of: #1138 The rest of the issues, will be fixed on the Alaveteli core.

Just to note, and definitely not a review - I actually really like this - it has the secondary advantage of refreshing the design in a subtle way, whilst delivering known access benefits. Lovely stuff 👍

I'm thinking we merge and deploy this when we start talking about our 20th anniversary. Am I correct in thinking there will be a banner added to WDTK for this?

Sounds good.
