Introduce a new special value * for ui.THEMES which will automatically discover installed themes in bindata, custom folder and regular files.

Ref: #11118

Would that make it impossible to remove Gitea's original themes? Could be a big deal for customized instances.

Yes, shipped themes would be always included. While we could have an option to exclude them, I think it's not a big deal if they are there.

There are many instances running around that customize their theme; in fact based on my short experience from people asking for help on Discord, it happens more often than not.

Usually their point is to add custom company branding/colors/etc, but there are also projects like https://codeberg.org/ which would have to either stop using bindata or patch against our codebase.

Customize via custom CSS or add entirely new themes? I think it's more of the former, not the latter. Could have a DISABLE_THEMES setting (default empty) if really needed, but I doubt it will be of much use.

Codeberg does not add its own theme file (e.g. custom/public/theme-*.css), it's just adding a custom CSS file codeberg.css to overwrite some parts of the default theme so will be fine.

They might want to cruely limit users to a single, customized theme thought. I'm thinking maybe retain THEMES but default it to a special * value meaning all installed themes will be automatically discovered. Only if the user specifies the option then themes would be limited as it's currently.

Reworked this so it now only introduces theme discovery via * value and changes the default to this value, meaning THEMES will work like before for values other than *.

Not sure if this is the best way to compare two slices 😉

Would like to do a full test here but I have no idea how to properly initialize the setting module for the test. If I used models.PrepareTestEnv(t) it just segfaults during the test.

Would still like to do this, but this is too outdated now and I guess I would do it once I decide to make a new dark theme :)
