[NEW THEME]: Unearthed Arcana

[G-Ambatte]

This PR adds a new theme: Unearthed Arcana. It mimics the very basic styling of those documents, with monochrome text and no visible background texture.

Adding a reference picture, just in case:

I am not familiar with the unearthed arcana style; shouldn't this theme also include the PHB snippets? It doesn't have class tables, stat blocks, etc.

I know the current early convention for the dropdownTextures is to use a screencap of a blank portion of the page...hence dropdownTextures as the file name.

But here, I'm wondering if this one theme might be an exception? It currently matches the Base theme texture...just blank white. I don't know if this theme can be distinguished in any way in the texture? If not, just leave it white.

I was about to say "UA never includes full classes, only sub-classes at most"... But then I remembered that the 6E/5.5E/OneDnD/D&DNext™/whatever it's called today playtest materials use the Unearthed Arcana styling, and include full class tables.

See here:

So it's the long way of saying: yes, agreed, it probably should include those snippets.

Someone on discord asked about a UA theme. I found this existing brew that may be of help to flesh this PR out a bit: https://homebrewery.naturalcrit.com/share/kFDWFxP4Gglk

Would it be desirable to use this as a test case for the "naturacrit user" user themes?

[calculuschild]

I think so. 👍

[5e-Cleric]

I think so. 👍

question, how are we going to account for which snippets this theme will have access to?

Snippets should be inherited. If they aren't, then it needs to be solved one of the ways we discussed user snippets.

Snippets will be inherited, but themes may have their own snippets, we'll have to implement the snippets in brew as we discussed.

I very quickly created the following test document in the test deployment: https://homebrewery-pr-3022.herokuapp.com/share/HQIUEb0vYNnF

Because it uses the new theme in this PR, it will not work on the production Homebrewery website.

Snippets still to be resolved at this time.
