Fixes #188

Problem

The viewport background uses a subtle 2-color linear gradient (Base #1e1e2e → Crust #11111b) which appears as a mostly flat dark grey.

Fix

Replace with a 3-color gradient using Catppuccin Mocha colors:

Top: Overlay0 (#6c7086) — lighter grey-blue
Middle: Mantle (#181825) — dark center
Bottom: Overlay0 (#6c7086) — lighter grey-blue

This creates a vignette-like effect with depth, making the viewport more visually distinct from the surrounding UI panels.

Updated in both:

KindredCreate.cfg preference pack
CatppuccinMocha.cfg theme (ztools submodule)
