Description
### Documentation Feedback
The current documentation does not provide sufficient documentation for how to change the shadow colour (possibly more relevant with dark themes).
I have found the [original commits for the feature](https://github.com/angular/components/issues/11343), so I know it is achievable, but I could not find enough documentation to implement it myself. My attempts can be seen at [this Stack Blitz](https://stackblitz.com/edit/material-shadow-demo?file=src%2Fglobal_styles.scss).
I'm selfishly just wanting to know how to implement the feature, but I'm also willing to update the documentation if that would be of assistance.
Thank you all for your work - Angular Material is great.

Research direction
Start with the affected page at material.angular.io/guide/elevation#overridable-elevation and review the original feature issue 11343. Use the linked StackBlitz to understand the missing shadow-colour guidance, then update the elevation documentation with reproducible instructions and verify that the dark-theme use case is covered.
