feat: enable dark mode on GTK UIs (#40009)

feat: port DarkModeManagerLinux

This is needed after https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=998903
and replaces the previous workaround to detect dark mode on GTK.
Detect system dark theme preference via xdg settings portal:
https://flatpak.github.io/xdg-desktop-portal/#gdbus-org.freedesktop.portal.Settings

Closes: #38961
Closes: #28838
