Soft Lights — VS Code Theme

It is a minor, tastefully balanced alteration of the Field Lights (Ayu Mirage) theme, created for users who prefer a soft, low-contrast environment with warm undertones and comfortable readability. In addition to subtle palette adjustments, Soft Lights also includes custom styling for Python semantic tokens, providing clearer visual structure while preserving the theme’s calm aesthetic.
