jacobherrington eabe7b2585 Change button copy on theme preview
This commit makes the dark mode preview feel a little more interactive
and it also pulls some duplicated code into one file so that people like
me aren't stumped when they are looking at the wrong page!

Just the Docs supports two color schemes: light (default), and dark.
To enable a color scheme, set the `color_scheme` parameter in your site's `_config.yml` file:
#### Example
{: .no_toc }
```yaml
# Color scheme currently only supports "dark" or nil (default)
color_scheme: "dark"
```
<button class="btn js-toggle-dark-mode">Preview dark color scheme</button>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{{ "/assets/js/dark-mode-preview.js" | absolute_url }}"></script>
## Specific visual customization
To customize your sites aesthetic, open `_sass/custom/custom.scss` in your editor to see if there is a variable that you can override. Most styles like fonts, colors, spacing, etc. are derived from these variables. To override a specific variable, uncomment its line and change its value.
For example, to change the link color from the purple default to blue, open `_sass/custom/custom.css` and find the `$link-color` variable on line `50`. Uncomment it, and change its value to our `$blue-000` variable, or another shade of your choosing.
#### Example
{: .no_toc }
```scss
// ...
//
// $body-text-color: $grey-dk-100;
// $body-heading-color: $grey-dk-300;
$link-color: $blue-000;
//
// ...
```
_Note:_ Editing the variables directly in `_sass/support/variables.scss` is not recommended and can cause other dependencies to fail.
