Improve link colors on gamma-adjusted screens

Existing link colors made it hard to distinguish between visited and
unvisted links on screens that had warmer color temperatures. Adjusted
the colors to make the distinction clear.

Unfortunately, that adjustment made superscript visited links (for
footnotes) fail the APCA, so I added a solid black background to
superscripts. Now they too should have good contrast.
