Merged: Yes


Hey, this adds both the Dark Modern and Light Modern color schemes from VSCode to match issue #19162.

I pulled the colors directly from VSCode's terminalColorRegistry.ts for accuracy. The existing Dark+ scheme uses the older terminal colors from before VSCode introduced the Modern variants, so this gives users access to the newer palette.

The Dark Modern background is #1F1F1F which is the actual color used in VSCode currently, not #1E1E1E from the legacy theme. Light Modern uses #FFFFFF background with #3B3B3B foreground text.

Tested locally in Windows Terminal and both schemes render correctly.
