Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color-adjust] Used color-scheme should affect the root element color, not initial color (#4608)

> Can we just change the initial value of 'color' to be text?

[`CanvasText`](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-color/#valdef-system-color-canvastext), but yes, that sounds like the most sensible solution. Resolved value would be RGB (consistent with resolution in https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/3847#issuecomment-547990842), so no observable difference unless using color schemes or using TypedOM to distinguish between computed and resolved.

It could also be consistent with the current behavior in Firefox, which still allows users to set their preferred initial text color (which is used both for the root and for `color: initial` in general). The user settings could be applied as a customization of the system color scheme.

In contrast, making the initial value of the property be color-scheme dependent seems kind of weird from a cascade perspective.
