I bisected the regression to 9a6a457 / #2144 (the fault does not occur when using the build from the previous commit e17472e)
I noticed that the fault does not occur on the first run after clearing the "user data" folder:
Select File > Quit (or Arduino > Quit Arduino for macOS users) from the Arduino IDE menus if it is running.
Rename or delete the "user data" folder, which is located at the following path:
Windows:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\arduino-ide\
(where <username> is your Windows username)
❗ If looking for it with your file manager or command line, note that the AppData folder is hidden by default. On Windows "File Explorer", you can make it visible by opening the "View" menu, then checking the box next to "☐ Hidden items".
Linux:
/home/<username>/.config/arduino-ide/
(where <username> is your Linux username)
❗ The .config folder may be hidden by default in your file manager and terminal.
(where <username> is your macOS username)
❗ The Library folder is hidden by default. You can make it visible by pressing the Command+Shift+. keyboard shortcut.
⚠ Please be very careful when deleting things from your computer. When in doubt, back up!

🙂 The colors have good contrast, as was the case when using versions of Arduino IDE prior to the regression.

🐛 The colors now have poor contrast.
Describe the problem
Arduino IDE has a "Suggest" (AKA autocomplete/Intellisense) feature. When triggered, a menu is displayed offering suggested completions for the line at the cursor position in the editor.
This menu uses several colors to convey information, including:
🐛 When the "Light" theme is in use, the light blue color used by the former has very poor contrast against the light teal color used by the latter.

All foreground colors used by officially supported themes have good contrast against all possible background colors for that element.
