Template:Syntax highlight

Todo: manually calculate the results of the current colors after filter: invert(1) hue-rotate(180deg) and change these colors to them. It's what an official wikipedia extension does for dark mode, and will contrast against a dark background better. VDC doesn't allow the filter property.
