This PR fixes the “white status bar” issue reported in #183 on devices running Android 9 (API 28) and below.

The status bar area appears as a solid white strip on Android 9 and below. On Android 10+ with edge‑to‑edge layouts the bug is not visible.

This uses the existing cb_colorPrimary theme attribute so the status bar color follows the dashboard’s primary color and stays customizable for icon pack devs.

  • Fixes the white status bar on Android 9 and below.
  • Keeps dynamic theming intact: icon pack developers can still override cb_colorPrimary in their own themes.
  • No behaviour change for Android 10+ devices that already override android:statusBarColor with edge-to-edge layout theming.
