Feature: Dark mode

[laine-hallot]

Info

This PR adds a way to change the site's color mode between light and dark. The features been requested a couple times before and it just seemed like a nice thing to have.

Dev Notes

I just had it use the default dark theme from @primer/react for dark/night mode since it seemed like the project more or less uses the default light theme save for a red accent color. I did try using that accent color in dark mode but I felt like the contrast just wasn't good enough so I left it as the default blue accent color.

This PR also adds a couple hooks deal with switching the color mode.

useColorPreference()

This hook handles changing the theme context's colorMode as well as setting the selected value in localStorage.

Since the value in localStorage and the theme context are separate and there's no guarantee that every call of the hook is happening in the same theme context the hook accepts a parameter to change the prefix for key in local storage which at least gives you a way to call useColorPreference in multiple theme context without them overwriting each other's localStorage values.
You can still overwrite one context's localStorage value with another's if you call useColorPrefrence using same prefix value.

usePrismTheme()

This one just checks what the effective color mode is for the current theme context and returns a Prism theme. I set it to use vsDark for dark/night mode since that seems like the default for Prism.

This is quite a helpful PR (at least for my eyes). May we follow through with it? 🙏

@leobalter sorry to ping you, this PR has just been open for a few months and I wasn't sure if anyone even saw it at this point.
Is this a feature the maintainers are interested in adding at all? I know you said the feature wasn't a priority here (#1357 (comment)) but I figure that's mostly because that was in response to a feature request and assumed the code still needed to be written by one of the core contributors instead of just a PR that implemented it.
