polish(header): theme toggle icon overlaps wordmark artwork on narrow viewports #1867

Description

@davidsneighbour

Current behaviour

At a 390px viewport, the sun/moon theme-toggle icon in the fixed top-right corner visually collides with the tail of the large "dev*" wordmark glyphs beneath it, before any scroll has occurred. No z-index or contrast treatment currently separates them.

Suggested fix

Add a small backdrop chip or scrim behind the theme-toggle icon at narrow widths so it separates cleanly from the wordmark artwork on first paint.
