Redesign breadcrumbs with brand-tinted band and persona pills

Drive the navbar text from the theme-reactive --hd-fg-* vars instead of
Bootstrap's baked-in dark color, so it flips light when the background
goes dark. Also fade the beginscroll gradient to --hd-bg-canvas rather
than a hardcoded white.
