Problem: Current values of `StatusLine` and `StatusLineNC` are currently
designed to be visually distinctive while being not intrusive.
However, the compromise was more shifted towards "not intrusive".
After the feedback, statusline highlight groups should be designed to:
- Make current window clearly noticeable. Meaning `StatusLine` and
`StatusLineNC` should obviously differ.
- Make non-current windows clearly separable. Meaning `StatusLineNC`
and `Normal`/`NormalNC` should obviously differ.
Solution:
- Update `StatusLineNC` to have more visible background.
- Update `StatusLine` to be inverted variant of `StatusLineNC`.
- Update `WinBar` and `WinBarNC` to not link to `StatusLine` and
`StatusLineNC` because it makes two goals harder to achieve.
- Update `TabLine` to link to `StatusLineNC` instead of `StatusLine`
to not be very visually intrusive.
