This primarily changes two things:

  1. The default theme isn't stored as the selected theme to localStorage anymore. This is mainly useful for people with dynamic dark modes (i.e. only at night) because the dark mode preference is now recomputed properly on each reload as long as they didn't select a theme.
  2. I added some CSS to the default themes that enable a dark mode in no-js mode on prefers-color-scheme: dark.

Upgrade to mdBook v0.3.7

This bumps the requirement from Rust v1.34.0 to v1.35.0 for building docs. AFAICT CI is using nightlies so that should be fine, but I thought I'd mention it in case someone thinks this impacts contributors in any way.

Other than that, there are a few changes that might impact some users in a visible way, like automatic dark theme support for those who picked that perference in their browser, possible color changes to the scrollbar and to the font size, change in the spacing in the sidebar entries, and many more changes and fixes that won't be too immediately impactful but very good all around.

I checked changes from transitive dependency bumps as well, AFAICT there is nothing that *should* impact the final rendering.

**tl;dr:** Nothing will explode. Probably.

For completeness, my raw notes of outtakes as I was reviewing the change logs:

```
[cosmetic]
v0.3.2 https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#mdbook-032

Use standard scrollbar-color CSS along with webkit extension #816
rust-lang/mdBook#816

* https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/scrollbar-color

[helpful]
v0.3.2 https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#mdbook-032
Updated highlight.js for syntax highlighting updates (primarily to add async/await to Rust highlighting). #1041

Switch to relative rem font sizes from px. #894
rust-lang/mdBook#894

* will impact some displays, but px is already an abstract thing so maybe not that big of an impact.

[warning]
v0.3.5 https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#mdbook-035
Updated pulldown-cmark to 0.6.1, fixing several issues. #1021
rust-lang/mdBook#1021

* from 0.5, breaking changes.

[cosmetic]

Adjusted spacing of sidebar entries. #1137
rust-lang/mdBook#1137

* https://github.com/sunng87/handlebars-rust/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md
* strictly maintenance and perf AFAICS, no changes to final rendering.

[cosmetic]

[cosmetic]
v0.3.7 https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#mdbook-037
Code spans in headers are no longer highlighted as code. #1162

* users will see some headers change, probably.

[fixes]
+ ~13 fixes impacting rendering in less immediately visible ways.
rest should have no impact on end-user experience.
