Published my port of the Alabaster theme family for Helix.

Alabaster is a minimal syntax highlighting approach by Nikita Prokopov (tonsky) - only 4 semantic colors: strings, constants, comments, and definitions. Everything else stays plain text because code structure is already clear from formatting.

I've ported all 6 variants (light/dark × standard/BG/mono) from the original Sublime theme (staying as close as possible to the original). Also submitted a PR to ship these with Helix upstream!

Original theme: https://github.com/tonsky/sublime-scheme-alabaster

My port: https://github.com/wolf/alabaster-for-helix

I tried to duplicate the original exactly, however Helix has multiple selections so I made the colors distinct between "selection" and "primary-selection".
