[Bug]: directory and user columns invisible with default and marine themes

[dandrake]

What did you expect to happen?

I want to configure the history popup so that it shows the directory -- but nothing is shown. Same for the user and host columns. So I have this in config.toml

columns = ["duration", "time", "directory", "user", "host", { type = "command", expand = false }]

I expected to see all those columns.

I did not -- but should have -- seen a header at the top of the history with this text:

 Atuin v18.16.1     <esc>: exit, <tab>: edit, <enter>: edit, <ctrl-o>: insphistory count: 1448

What happened?

Whatl I see in the history popup is:

147ms   13h ago                                 the_host      ls bin
178ms   13h ago                                 the_host      cd ..
119ms   13h ago                                 the_host      echo $PATH

and with no header line like the above.

I thought those were just missing, but when I select the text, I see that the text is there! It's just invisible in my terminal.

If I change the theme to "marine", I can see the text (and the header), but the default and autumn themes show invisible text.

I actually didn't even realize that there was a header because it was always invisible before now. I found atuin rather hard to use because the keybindings were mysterious. But they were being shown the whole time!

I'm using the foot terminal with the sway tiling desktop. I think I have a dark solarized theme.

Can those themes get updated to be visible? Or is this some idiosyncratic configuration on my end?

It looks like the directory column is considered an "Annotation", and in the themes where I don't see anything, that gets a "DarkGrey" color. Could that be changed to, say, regular gray? Light gray?

The "steel blue" in the marine theme is visible for me.

Same comment for the header text, which appears to also get the Annotation and dark gray coloring that is invisible for my terminal.
