File Block: Add background/text color support

[melchoyce]

The File Block has an optional button, but you can't change the background or text colors of that button. This can present a problem if your site's background color conflicts with the default button color. For example:

We should consider adding color support to this block.

I am doing a status update.
The File block looks currently like this:

It is still missing color controls.

Associated issue:
Consider adding color and text size customizations to all text-based blocks.

Actually the File block is missing Color and Typography controls.
Both controls are needed. All blocks that handle text in some way are to have both of these controls in place.

Hi @paaljoachim - I don't see any problem implementing the typography control. What I found is that the text of the filename is a link, how should we handle that regarding to colors? Also, there's a button as well, should that have separate controls for colors/typography?

@juanfra if you'd be interested in working on this, it's probably easier to see what works better in a PR. We can also loop in Mel for design feedback.

Also happy to provide feedback here. Specifically on the question of colors, I would think global styles would eventually allow us to opt in to supporting link colors, so you'd have 3 color options — background, text, and links.

Hey @juanfra Juan

Here is an example from the Heading block. Also the Paragraph block has Text, Background and Link colors.

Thank you Juan!
