Subject: [PATCH] [3.13] gh-120083: Add IDLE Hovertip foreground color needed
 for recent macOS (GH-120605) (#122739)

gh-120083: Add IDLE Hovertip foreground color needed for recent macOS (GH-120605)

On recent versions of macOS (sometime between Catalina and Sonoma 14.5), the default Hovertip foreground color changed from black to white, thereby matching the background. This might be a matter of matching the white foreground of the dark-mode text. The unreadable result is shown here (GH-120083 (comment)).

The foreground and background colors were made parameters so we can pass different colors for future additional hovertips in IDLE.
---------

(cherry picked from commit 5a7f7c48644baf82988f30bcb43e03dcfceb75dd)
