feat(helix): paint the statusline and bufferline like heirline - #27

Conversation
The Helix bar now follows the AstroNvim status contract in contrib/astronvim.lua: sections on bg_highlight with the page foreground, the mode block in purple, pink or cyan for normal, insert or select with the page colour as text, and the unfocused bar dropping to bg_dark. The bufferline mirrors the heirline tabline, active buffer in bold purple on the editor background and the rest muted on the section surface. Regenerated the five extras/helix themes from the template. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The Helix statusline and bufferline now follow the same status contract heirline uses in AstroNvim (
contrib/astronvim.lua), so a Helix session sits next to a Neovim session without the bar looking like a different theme. Sections move from purebg_darkontobg_highlightwith the page foreground, the mode block takes purple, pink or cyan for normal, insert or select (previously purple, green and pink) with the page color as text, and the unfocused bar drops tobg_dark. The bufferline mirrors the heirline tabline: the active buffer in bold purple on the editor background, the rest muted on the section surface.The change is in the template in
lua/silkcircuit/extra/helix.lua; the fiveextras/helixthemes are regenerated from it. The dotfiles side that lays the bar out (hyperb1iss/dotfiles#16) is opened alongside.🧪 Validation
make buildregenerated the five themes; only the statusline and bufferline scopes differ from the previous output. Helix 25.07.1 loadedsilkcircuit-glowfrom the regenerated file in a pty with no theme warning inhelix.log, and rendered the mode block in normal, insert and select mode plus the bufferline with two buffers open.stylua --checkandselenepass on the template.The pre-commit hooks for stylua and selene call
