Sync Altair with the system theme

[tudoramariei]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Many people use an automatic way of setting their OS theme to dark or light (me included) since you don't want to always have the same colour for your apps but also because sometimes it might not be good for your eyes.

Describe the solution you'd like
An option in the settings where you can have Altair sync with the system settings

i.e. if the system settings change the theme from dark to light, Altair would also switch to the system theme

Considering the current options, the best choice would be to have the following choices:

• light
• dark
• dracula
• system (with an optional selector to pick the preferred dark theme)

Hey @tudoramariei, Altair currently selects the right theme for you based on your system settings by default. So if you have your system set to use dark mode, when you open Altair fro the first time, it would set your theme to dark theme for you automatically.

I wasn't clear enough here, what I wanted was to have Altair constantly sync with the system theme. So that when sunset comes and the computer changes to dark mode Altair would also switch (same for sunrise).
