stylix: keep wallpaper tints in surfaces, neutralise foreground only

Browse source 
Previous override was too aggressive — neutralising every base00..07
slot stripped the wallpaper character out of backgrounds. Narrow the
override to base03..07 so surfaces (base00..02) keep the tint while
text and muted foreground go neutral. Accents stay wallpaper-derived.
