Override the shared DataGrid row resources so hovered rows no longer pick up a separate hover fill and unfocused selected rows render with a much fainter opacity. Keep the selected-row highlight strong only while the owning grid has focus by targeting the upstream BackgroundRectangle via DataGrid:focus-within selectors. Trim the custom row selectors down to the minimum needed on top of Avalonia's Fluent DataGrid theme instead of duplicating upstream selected-row behavior.
Add shared ListBoxItem theme overrides so list boxes follow the same selection-focus behavior as the recent DataGrid styling update. Remove the default grey hover fill for unselected list items, keep selected rows visually strong only while the owning ListBox has focus, and render unfocused selected items with a lighter accent brush. Scope is limited to shared ListBox visuals in Styles.axaml; no selection behavior, bindings, or non-ListBox controls are changed.
