Description
Description
This PR adds a generic color theme override system: https://github.com/stacklok/toolhive-studio/pull/2263 Which has the actual themeing implementation and a single data source, a user-level JSON.
But doesn't include MacOS native system-level settings support.
Acceptance Criteria
- Implement Electron systemPreferences support on Mac:https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/system-preferences
- this allows for system-level override, not just user level

Review PR #2263 to understand the existing generic theme override system and its user-level JSON source. Then consult Electron's systemPreferences API and implement the Mac system-level override; done means macOS settings can override the user-level theme.
