```
Implement perceptual gamma / contrast correction (#37167)

Closes #36023 

This improves font rendering quality by doing perceptual gamma+contrast
correction which makes font edges look nicer and more legible.

This is most noticeable on smaller fonts / low-dpi displays

Release Notes:

- Improved font rendering quality
