fix(highlight): reduce word-level blend alpha and match line number bg

Browse source 
Problem: word-level diff highlights were too intense at 70% alpha, and
line number backgrounds used the line-level blend instead of matching
the word-level highlights.

Solution: reduce DiffsAddText/DiffsDeleteText blend alpha from 0.7 to
0.6 and use the same blended background for DiffsAddNr/DiffsDeleteNr.

@ -402,6 +402,10 @@ diffs.nvim defines custom highlight groups. Fugitive unified diff groups use
`default = true`, so colorschemes can override them. Diff mode groups are
always derived from the corresponding `Diff*` groups.
All derived groups are computed by alpha-blending a source color into the
`Normal` background. Line-level groups blend at 40% alpha for a subtle tint;
character-level and line-number groups blend at 60% for more contrast.
