style(a11y): meet WCAG AA on --text-faint

Browse source 
Bump --text-faint from #746a58 (4.01:1 on cream surfaces — fails AA)
to #665c4b (4.94:1 — passes AA for small text). Preserves the "quieter
than --text-dim" semantic the variable was named for. Lifts ~33 sites
into compliance with one diff.

Also keeps the BoardPostCard per-selector swap to --text-dim that
shipped with the original /board fix; can revert to --text-faint
in a follow-up now that the variable itself is accessible.
