Subject: Chams: make Fullbright a white-hot additive glow

Fullbright was additive with the chosen colour lifted only 25% toward white,
which on a dark scene looked almost identical to Solid/Flat. Force white for
the Fullbright colour so the additive pass reads as a distinctly brighter,
white-hot glow; the faint translucent base still gives it a silhouette on
bright backgrounds.
