Re-ramp makenotwork so it can hold a bevel The skin put 2.8 L* between page and raised and 4.6 between bevel-light and the face it lights. That is not a weak bevel but an invisible one: nothing lifts off anything, and the MNW server's Platinum conversion would have looked like nothing happened. Deepens the ramp to 6.7 L* page-to-raised, holding the border against the lower page and collapsing overlay onto raised, which had differed from it by a rounding error. Resolves to bevel-light #fffef5, bevel-dark #b5afa6, surface-well #fffef5. Third theme to need this after goingson and audiofiles, both off white, so it is a pattern rather than three accidents. The assertion that would have caught all three is a separate task: the existing degeneracy tests measure each edge against its own face and nothing measures the face against the page it sits on. Release makeover v2.4.1
