Code cell numbering in embeds is invisible in dark themes

El problema está en los archivos SCSS para los temas de Bootstrap. Mire las líneas 949-953 de src/resources/formats/html/bootstrap/_bootstrap-rules.scss y compárelas con los archivos de tema oscuro como darkly.scss línea 184. La solución es asegurarse de que el color pre se herede correctamente en los temas oscuros. Pruebe modificando el SCSS del tema y luego renderizando un documento de ejemplo de Quarto con un tema oscuro para verificar que los números de celda sean visibles.

Bug description

In dark themes, the cell number (e.g. In [1]:, In [2]:, ...) from an embedded code cell ends up very dark on a dark background and fails contrast minimums.

These cell numbers are a bare <pre> inside a .cell-decorator div (<div class="cell-decorator"><pre>In [2]:</pre></div>) — the <pre> itself has no class, so its text color comes from an unscoped, generic pre rule rather than anything specific to .cell-decorator.

Bootstrap's own pre rule (_reboot.scss#L300) sets color: $pre-color, which defaults to $body-emphasis-color (_variables.scss#L1774-L1775) — a light-mode-oriented near-black. Quarto's own override (_bootstrap-rules.scss#L949-L953) resets background-color to initial (so .cell-decorator's bare <pre> blends into the page) but never resets color, so the hardcoded near-black text is left sitting on whatever background the page inherits.

Bootstrap's own dark themes carry a defensive fix for exactly this: darkly.scss#L184 and cyborg.scss#L192 both set $pre-color: inherit !default;.

Steps to reproduce

---
title: "Repro"
theme: dark.scss
---

{{< embed source.qmd#cell-one >}}

with dark.scss:

/*-- scss:defaults --*/
$body-bg: #151515;
$body-color: #f8f8f8;

/*-- scss:rules --*/

and source.qmd:

---
title: "Source"
---

```{r}
#| label: cell-one
1 + 1
```

quarto render index.qmd

Actual behavior

The compiled theme CSS resolves to:

pre{...color:#000;background-color:#f8f9fa;...}
pre{background-color:initial;padding:initial;border:initial}

.cell-decorator's <pre> ends up with color: #000 on the page's
$body-bg (#151515) — a contrast ratio of ~1.15:1.

Expected behavior

.cell-decorator's <pre> text should meet 4.5:1 contrast against the
theme's own background, the same way Bootswatch's dark themes handle it.

Author workaround (that generated screenshot): add $pre-color: inherit !default; to the theme's
scss:defaults block:

/*-- scss:defaults --*/
$body-bg: #151515;
$body-color: #f8f8f8;
$pre-color: inherit !default;
/*-- scss:rules --*/
