Inlay hints show odd colour

[wchresta]

In rust, some extensions like rust-analyzer make significant use of the inlay-hints feature of vscode.

Apparently, vscode-theme-gruvbox does not correctly theme these and they appear with a magenta background:

I would expect the inlay hints to be less intrusive

you can manually change inlay hints colour in settings.json with following:

    "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
        "[Gruvbox Dark Hard]": {
            "editorInlayHint.foreground": "#938473",
            "editorInlayHint.background": "#00000036",

        },
        "[Gruvbox Dark Medium]": {
            "editorInlayHint.foreground": "#938473",
            "editorInlayHint.background": "#00000036",
        },
        "[Gruvbox Dark Soft]": {
            "editorInlayHint.foreground": "#938473",
            "editorInlayHint.background": "#00000036",
        }
    },

it would look like this

it binds absolute colour for chosen theme, not already existing colour in theme, so you can pick any colour for hints you like (but secretely i want gruvbox theme to make them less intrusive on its own too)
