 -theme: Dark+ (color blind)

This PR address #109132

This PR adds a new accessibility feature to our community:
Theme Dark+ (color blind).
My research was based on my own experience using VS Code (I'm blind color). The colour palette was generated by online tools that provide friendly colours to blind colors. The theme was tested against my eyes until I feel that it was the right solution; Using the theme, I found it much easier to read/understand the code.
It's good to have a theme like this coming together with VS Code default installation.
I hope it helps our community.

Thanks.
Pedro

Hi @PedroFonsecaDEV. Thanks for looking at this.
May I suggest that you publish the theme as an extension to the Marketplace? The yo code generator together with the command 'Generate Color theme from current setting` will help you with that. See https://code.visualstudio.com/api/extension-guides/color-theme for more details.

By hosting the theme on the Marketplace you stay in charge and can make changes quicker. We currently have no plans to add more built-in themes.
