Review request for Plasma and Anne-Marie Mahfouf.


Description
-------

The notes plasmoid by default takes the text color from the current plasma theme but \
has "yellow" hardcoded as default background color. This can lead to unreadable notes \
by default with certain plasma themes, e.g. Produkt. It's especially annoying if \
you're using such a theme because you can't globally change the default notes colors \
but have to do it for each note on its own (f.e. every time after pasting text to the \
desktop by pressing the middle mouse button). 

This patch changes the default background color to black if the text color is \
brighter than a certain threshold. Also the background color is re-read from the \
config on plasma theme change to make it change as well if necessary.

The brightness is determined with QColor::lightness().
I chose 100 as threshold, because yellow's lightness value is 128 and yellow on \
yellow wouldn't be good either... ;-) I don't know if 100 is the perfect value, but \
it works as intended with all the themes I have installed.


This addresses bug 320350.

Testing
-------

Created a note on the desktop (with default text and background color) and switched \
the plasma theme to each one I have installed. (Air, Air for Netbooks, Air openSUSE, \
Androbit, Aya, Produkt, Slim Glow, Tibanna, openSUSE) Notes were readable with any \
theme, the background color changed to black where necessary, was yellow as before \
otherwise.

This patch is also part of openSUSE's plasma-addons package since a month ago.
