Keep title text fully opaque on colored headers.

When a named title-bar color is selected, .block-frame-text keeps the inherited #f7f7f7 foreground but applies opacity: 0.7. The Red, Orange, Gold, Green, Teal, and Pink choices reduce effective title contrast below 4.5:1. Apply the opacity override only when headerColor is set.

Review comment at @frontend/app/block/blockframe-header.tsx at line 255:
Update the header styling around the `headerColor`-dependent inline style so
title text remains fully opaque when a named header color is set. Add a
conditional class to the header element and scope an opacity override for
`.block-frame-text` to that class; leave opacity unchanged for headers without
`headerColor`.
