NOTE: This should not be worked on until T387543 is resolved.
**Steps to replicate the issue** (include links if applicable):
* Visit desktop https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_218#Thumbnail_background in dark mode
* Visit mobile - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)/Archive_218#Thumbnail_background in dark mode
**What happens?**:
Images use a fixed background color #c8ccd1 defined in Vector (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/skins/Vector/+/df3e7fb3efa87111fd9de4cf23cb73f606993497/resources/skins.vector.styles/media.less#19)
and in Minerva (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/skins/MinervaNeue/+/14ce43900462a0f82053afd084b9962896c1d068/resources/skins.minerva.styles/content/images.less#131)
**What should have happened instead?**:
* The images should be identical on mobile and desktop
* Following input from DST on T387543 the images should be updated to use a fixed white background (`@background-color-base-fixed`) in both dark and light mode
* In dark mode the images should also receive a `filter: brightness(0.8);`
* Light mode should not be impacted by our changes.
**Software version** (on `Special:Version` page; skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):

In event of rollback, it's important not to revert 588efdff805. Reverting the Vector and Minerva changes should be sufficient.
