Subject: [PATCH] Detect dark theme via css variable (#17800)

* detect dark theme via css variable
* minor refactor, add documentation

If your custom theme is considered a dark theme, set the global css variable `--is-dark-theme` to `true`.
This allows gitea to adjust the Monaco code editor's theme accordingly.
