Mark the active panel with an accent line, not a tinted header

Tinting the whole header strip of the focused panel was too much: the
strip changed color every time focus moved. Both panels now share one
neutral header strip, and the active panel is marked by a thin accent
line along its top edge (an inset shadow, so switching panels never
shifts the layout).
