SDK Manager's appearance clashes with macOS dark mode

Reproduction procedure:

- Install SDK Manager on a Mac set to dark mode

Observations:

- The "delete" and "download"  buttons for the devices are black, as well as the chevrons for expanding/collapsing sections, but the background is dark grey, so they don't look good, although they're still recognizable

- The "new" badge next to new devices is also black, and nearly unreadable on the dark grey background.

Screenshots are attached in the first comment.

Light mode looks fine. Also, dark mode in Windows 11 is fine -- the app's background is light regardless of the system being in dark mode.

    gcm uses grey chars on black background, totally invisible...

    I can only speak for myself, but I can read the text on the Garmin Connect app even with my phone's brightness set to minimum. But maybe Garmin should offer a light mode for people who want it. And/or they could have Garmin Connect follow your phone's light/dark mode selection. (Garmin Connect is always dark, regardless of your phone's theme.)

    The situation with the SDK manager is different, as it's obviously unintended to have black icons containing dark grey text on a dark grey background, especially since all the other text is light.
