flashlight state don't show white correctly in the sim

4.2.0 beta1 SDK and F7 System 6 Preview device.

I have an app that turns on the flashlight, and I notices with FLASHLIGHT_COLOR_WHITE. nothing shows for the flashlight on the bottom line of the sim, while FLASHLIGHT_COLOR_GREEN and FLASHLIGHT_COLOR_RED show.  I think the issue is the icon for white is white, so doesn't show with a while background.  See the next post for how red looks.  When white, the 50% shows correctly, just that there is no image.

Update:  With white there is a minor difference between while and the background and now that I know that, I can kind of see it, but maybe there needs to be something like a black outline to make it more visible.

    Hmm this reminds me of a time when I mentioned that a circle drawn in CIQ which touches the inside of a round watch's bezel doesn't look good (because it isn't the same thickness all the way around), and somebody told me that they can't see it, therefore it's not a problem.

    I *can* see the flashlight, therefore it's not a problem.

    In all seriousness, it's pretty bad on Windows. I can still see it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    It looks ok in macOS light mode, and perfect in macOS dark mode (because of the extremely dark background).

    (Light mode vs dark mode doesn't make a difference in Windows since Garmin apps don't seem to respect that mode in Windows.)
