The single quotes around the placeholder in

ComparePreferencePage.colorAndFontLink were originally added for
emphasis in UI. Since the text already appears as a blue clickable link,
the additional quotes seems unnecessary. Removing the quotes makes the
message cleaner and consistent. This also aligns with other similar
preference links across the UI where such quotes are not used.
