Dolphin now with breeze

SUMMARY
The new highlighting for files in dolphin introduced in this commit effectively
hardcodes the style of the highlight, making it unthemable for other themes
like Oxygen

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Update to latest dolphin
2. Highlight a file with Breeze theme
3. Change theme to Oxygen
4. Highlight the file again
5. Observe that the styling doesn't change for the highlighting

OBSERVED RESULT

The style of the highlight doesn't change, it still looks rounded and flat like
the breeze style.

EXPECTED RESULT

The style should be what is expected for the Oxygen theme

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.17.0
Qt Version: 6.9.1
Kernel Version: 6.16.1-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I have attached some images to illustrate the problem. I use PCManFM QT instead
of qt as the "before" image because I can't rollback dolphin
