Subject: [PATCH] fix: night map preserves hue instead of crushing to black
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The previous night filter used a desaturating invert whose coefficients
summed to ~1.4 per channel, which pushed every (light) OSM tone to
near-black and erased forest/water/land differentiation. Replace it with
a lightness invert composed with a 180° hue rotation: the map darkens but
hue is preserved, so forests stay dark green, water dark blue, and labels
invert to readable white.
