/* ==========================================================================
   Dark mode — follows the visitor's OS/browser preference automatically
   (no on-site toggle). Additive only: nothing above this point is touched,
   so light mode is unaffected. Two layers:
   1) redefine the --su-* tokens, which most of the site already reads from
      (nav pills, borders, muted text, section backgrounds, accents) —
      this alone re-themes the majority of the page.
   2) explicit overrides for the ~100 spots that hardcode #fff / #1c1c1c
      instead of a token (card surfaces, headings, forms, Bootstrap's own
      component defaults), grouped by what they become.
   Several sections (stats strip, profit-gauge cards, plans-hero strip,
   services-visual) are already dark-navy with white text by design in
   light mode too — intentionally left alone here.
