[feature/accessibility] Dark mode / light mode settings

[tsmethurst]

Currently, we only have dark mode pages on the web frontend for instance pages and profile pages (unless users set their custom CSS to a light mode version, ofc).

This issue gathers together some sub-issues for light mode versus dark mode settings, toggles, and detection.

I think user choice based on system information (prefers-color-scheme) is better, because it doesn't add *insert any amount of* webpages that require you manually toggle the light/dark mode (so toggling light/dark theme system wide is just one click).

There's already an issue for that! Last entry in the list above :)

The three other entries are very much not that, leaving the option to the designers instead of webpage viewers (who may have very different preferences).

The first entry is about allowing web visitors to choose.

I'm going to mark these replies as 'off topic'.
