Make Light & Dark Visuals Customizable When Following The System Theme (#4744)
* Closes <https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/4490>
* [x] I have followed the instructions in the PR template

---

Unfortunately, this PR contains a bunch of breaking changes because
`Context` no longer has one style, but two. I could try to add some of
the methods back if that's desired.

The most subtle change is probably that `style_mut` mutates both the
dark and the light style (which from the usage in egui itself felt like
the right choice but might be surprising to users).

I decided to deviate a bit from the data structure suggested in the
linked issue.
Instead of this:
```rust
pub theme: Theme, // Dark or Light
pub follow_system_theme: bool, // Change [`Self::theme`] based on `RawInput::system_theme`?
```

I decided to add a `ThemePreference` enum and track the current system
theme separately.
This has a couple of benefits:
* The user's theme choice is not magically overwritten on the next
frame.
* A widget for changing the theme preference only needs to know the
`ThemePreference` and not two values.
* Persisting the `theme_preference` is fine (as opposed to persisting
the `theme` field which may actually be the system theme).

The `small_toggle_button` currently only toggles between dark and light
(so you can never get back to following the system). I think it's easy
to improve on this in a follow-up PR :)
I made the function `pub(crate)` for now because it should eventually be
a method on `ThemePreference`, not `Theme`.

To showcase the new capabilities I added a new example that uses
different "accent" colors in dark and light mode:
