User Story

Implement:

tints.background_tab

as part of chrome parity.
See (again) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YScpOVL5WdNDhQY2Nngh4YkK0bOpkfwJvpRjpMSxMWo/edit#gid=0 Constants as defined in https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/chrome/browser/themes/theme_properties.h are: * COLOR_TAB_TEXT, * COLOR_BACKGROUND_TAB_TEXT, * TINT_BACKGROUND_TAB, * COLOR_BACKGROUND_TAB, * COLOR_TAB_THROBBER_SPINNING, * COLOR_TAB_THROBBER_WAITING, It's important here to first implement the properties in the order and with names that fit with Firefox well and try to match these up with the Google equivalents above. The 'throbber' properties are used by Google Chrome to apply an alternative color to the loading spinner that appears in place of a tabs' favicon. Implementing these may not be straightforward at the moment, thus may be moved forward to a separate bug.

* COLOR_TAB_TEXT -> can be implemented * COLOR_BACKGROUND_TAB_TEXT -> currently implemented as tab_text (which should be changed) * TINT_BACKGROUND_TAB -> what is the difference with colors.background_tab ? * COLOR_BACKGROUND_TAB -> is it relevant with photon ? * COLOR_TAB_THROBBER_SPINNING -> --tab-loading-fill * COLOR_TAB_THROBBER_WAITING -> can be implemented
