Implement a "dark theme"

Problem/Motivation

Drupal.org is very bright and white. When spending hours per day in the issue queues this can be very jarring. A dark theme would be much easier on the eye.

Symfony recently added a "dark theme" switcher on their site, http://symfony.com/doc/current/index.html (see bottom left).

Proposed resolution

- Use Drupal core's inbuilt user theme switching.
- Add a sub theme to Bluecheese which adds subtle css overrides such as dark background to <body>, <code>, <input>, and light text colours.

    Just following up here that a dark mode would indeed be wonderful, and the "sync with system" option as seen on symfony's site would be a welcome automated feature. In general is D.O looking to move to a new theme other than bluecheese with the next major upgrade? Is there a good page resource for either of those - D.O's upgrade plans and theme development?
