Dark theme

Checklist

• [x] I looked at https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/wiki/FAQ to see if my question has already been answered.
• [x] I performed a search in the issue tracker for similar issues using keywords relevant to my problem, such as the error message I got from the log.
• [x] I clicked the 'Log' button or pressed Ctrl-L in Rufus, and copy/pasted the log into the line that says <FULL LOG> below.
• [x] The log I am copying is the FULL log, starting with the line Rufus version: x.y.z - I have NOT removed any part of it.

Additionally (if applicable):

• [ ] I ran a bad blocks check, by clicking Show advanced format options then Check device for bad blocks, and confirmed that my USB is not defective.
• [ ] I also tried one or more of the following:
  • [ ] Using a different USB drive.
  • [ ] Plugging the USB into a different port.
  • [ ] Running Rufus on a different computer.
• [ ] If using an image, I clicked on the (✓) button to compute the MD5, SHA1 and SHA256 checksums, which are therefore present in the log I copied. I confirmed, by performing an internet search, that these values match the ones from the official image.

Issue description

Please add a dark theme to the application. Because using your application at night or in dark rooms is very unpleasant because of the bright white background. Ideally, it would not be bad if the theme of the application matches the theme of the system.

That's nice and I truly applaud your effort.

However, the current xisle exploratory project, which is what I'm planning to base the next Rufus UI on, and that is also based on an XAML UI, generates an executable that's only about 250 KB in size (and shouldn't grow that much in side from adding more UI elements), does not need to rely on separate DLLs or an installer and also does not require switching the interface to a different language (as long as you consider that C++ and C are similar languages though that last one is a minor point as I don't specially mind C# since I already have some elements for Rufus in that language anyway).

So, yeah, I'm afraid I see no reason to deviate from my original plan, which is to use XAML Island in a C/C++ app, as your project demonstrates that there doesn't seem to be much benefit to switching to full blown WinUI app...

Thanks for the kudos! 😍 my app's more of an experiment, so no worries. I just learned that we could make smaller apps using C++, i should learn from xisle
