Highlighting text has low contrast #1273

Description

@Meijuta

Frequently, I highlight text with the built-in highlighting feature, often to make salient the text on screen i want focused on.

The problem is the contrast between the highlight colour and text is quite poor in some cases (example below).

This is a bit of an accessibility issue.

Further, the colour of the highlighter is always blue. It doesn't match to material theming. Might be out of scope, but since many other GOS apps have material theming specifically included, it strikes me as a reasonable request.

Finally, it would be nice if "copy link to highlight" (a feature on desktop chromium) were available here. Its a feature I use frequently and should be relatively trivial to implement.
