feat: update default font from CentraNo1 to Geist#210
Conversation
Replace CentraNo1 font with Geist to align with the design-tokens v8 font family migration (metamask-design-system). This matches the @font-face declarations used in the design system's storybook-react. - Update @metamask/design-tokens from ^7.1.0 to ^8.0.0 - Replace CentraNo1 woff2 files with Geist woff2 files (6 faces: Regular, RegularItalic, Medium, MediumItalic, Bold, BoldItalic) - Update @font-face declarations in index.css

@metamask/design-tokens v8 introduces 3 breaking changes (migration guide): (1) font family CentraNo1→Geist, (2) background/muted now transparent, (3) HeadingSMRegular tokens removed. Only (1) applies here — this codebase uses background-alternative and background-default only, and no HeadingSMRegular tokens. The build copies @metamask/design-tokens/styles.css into design-tokens.css at build time, so the --font-family-default CSS variable automatically resolves to Geist after this upgrade.

The old CentraNo1 declarations only covered normal style (Book/Medium/Bold). These Geist declarations add italic variants for each weight (Regular, Medium, Bold), matching the canonical font set from metamask-design-system/apps/storybook-react/fonts/Geist. This ensures any future use of font-style: italic in this page renders correctly with the bundled font rather than relying on browser faux-italic synthesis.

This aligns the page background with the design system's primary surface color. In the dark theme context (data-theme="dark" on <html>), --color-background-default produces the standard dark surface, consistent with how the extension renders full-page views.

This aligns the primary button with the design system's Button component which uses icon-based tokens for its primary variant. The previous --color-primary-default (blue) styling was from an older design iteration. The icon-based tokens produce a dark button with light text in the dark theme — matching the extension's current button appearance. This also removes the need for the data-theme="light" override that was previously on this button in index.html.

This button previously forced a light-theme context on itself to get the desired blue-on-white appearance from --color-primary-* tokens. With the token migration to --color-icon-*, the button now renders correctly under the page's native data-theme="dark" context (set on <html>), making the per-element theme override unnecessary.

The old hover state kept background-color: var(--color-primary-default) — identical to the default state, meaning no visible hover feedback. The new tokens (--color-icon-default-hover, --color-icon-default-pressed) provide distinct visual states. Also adds border-color tracking on hover, which was previously missing — the border would stay the default color while the background changed, causing a visual mismatch.
