`config-inited` event handler has wrong signature

From https://github.com/executablebooks/sphinx-book-theme/pull/814#issuecomment-1941968901

Dear all, sorry to reopen this thread, but I'm quite sure this MR breaks the Jupyter-Book compilation. The error message is the following one:

Extension error (sphinx_book_theme):
Handler <function update_general_config at 0x7f09a7474790> for event 'config-inited' threw an exception (exception: update_general_config() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given)
Traceback (most recent call last):

    results.append(listener.handler(self.app, *args))
TypeError: update_general_config() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

===============================================================================

There was an error in building your book. Look above for the cause.

===============================================================================

Steps to reproduce:

Install Jupyter Book: pip install jupyter-book
Quickly generate a sample book: jupyter-book create mynewbook/
Build the sample book: jupyter-book build mynewbook/

No issues found when reverting to 1.1.0 version. Thanks in advance and apologies if the culprit is not here!
