 In [changeset:"61644" 61644]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="61644"
 Admin: Change the default admin color scheme to Modern.

 Rename the 'Modern' color scheme to 'Default' and the previous 'Default'
 scheme to 'Fresh'. Update all fallback references from 'fresh' to 'modern'
 across admin headers, the Customizer, the color scheme picker, the script
 loader, and user functions.

 Add an upgrade routine in `upgrade_700()` to migrate existing users with
 the 'fresh' admin color to 'modern'.

 Props fabiankaegy, audrasjb, mukesh27, westonruter, peterwilsoncc, jorbin,

 Fixes #64546.
