[Typography] Quieter default text, tighter EuiTitle tracking, align EuiText size with body #9901

Description

@ryankeairns

Part of #9893

Goal

Typography quick wins for the Kibana visual refresh — not the broader token track in #9894 (surfaces, radii, borders, semantic spacing).

Scope

  • Paragraph / body color (theme): soften Borealis colors.textParagraph (and legacy colors.text) toward subdued — light shade110, dark shade40. Root/html and inheriting components (including bare EuiText) pick this up. Leave textSubdued and textHeading unchanged so emphasis hierarchy remains
  • EuiText: keep default color as inherit
  • EuiTitle: decrease letter-spacing via theme title token (font.title.letterSpacing); keep darker textHeading color
  • EuiText: default sizes to match font.body.scale / unstyled body (~14px); keep default size in sync with body scale going forward

Out of scope

Implementation
