Research direction

Start by tracing the formDevtoolsPlugin() integration in @tanstack/react-form-devtools and compare its theme handling with TanStackDevtools and the query devtools shown in the report. Verify the behavior with the listed package versions; done means the form devtools follow the dark mode selected by TanStackDevtools instead of always rendering light.
