Bug description:
  [Impact]
   * When a user opens multiple tabs in GNOME terminal all tabs are styled in a *very* visually similar manner.  This makes it very hard to distinguish between the current active tab and all the others and on a HiDPI screen pretty much impossible.

  * This fix has been ack'd by design and was targeted for X but didn't
  get reviewed and OK'd in time.  Design team have approved this
  styling.

  * This bug is fixed by extending the CSS specifically for Terminal
  (i.e. no other applications are affected) giving the active tab a
  darker background colour (using only theme defined colours) and
  reworks the borders around the tabs to remove the graduated image
  borders that only look right on a light coloured background.  Changes
  have been made for both Ambiance and Radiance.

  [Test Case]
   * On a stock 16.04 install open GNOME Terminal (ctrl-alt-t)
   * Open five new tabs (ctrl-shift-t)
   * Click on the tab in the middle
   * Note that it is hard to see at a glance which tab is currently selected
   * Close Terminal and all open tabs.
   * Install the patched theme
   * Open Terminal and open five new tabs
   * Click on the tab in the middle and note that it takes on a light grey background compared to the unselected tabs which are dark grey.

  [Regression Potential]
   * The patch only addresses tabs that are placed at the top of the window. However this is the only option in Terminal, so should not cause any problems.
   * There is a work-around to match the "actions bar" (the bit with the dropdown selector and + button).  This bug is supposed to be fixed in v3.20 and could be removed.  This is commented in the CSS.
