Description

rustdoc documentation has an option to follow the system preference for light/dark. This is useful for systems sometimes used in different ambient light environments: switching the system theme switches all websites that are in "auto" mode.

Could the rust-clippy website (https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/) have a similar "auto" / "system preference" mode, please? ❤

Research direction

Start by comparing the rust-clippy website linked in the issue with rustdoc's existing light/dark system-preference behavior. Trace where the website's theme is selected and make the site follow the system preference when set to auto; done means switching the system theme updates the site without manual selection.
