Sébastien Helleu bf7b8484cd doc: switch syntax highlighting to automatic light/dark theme with bevel on code blocks
Syntax highlighting now follows the user's `prefers-color-scheme`:

- Light theme uses the pygments `default` style, embedded by Asciidoctor as before.
- Dark theme uses the pygments `monokai` style, generated at CMake
  configure time via `pygmentize` and injected into the docinfo through a
  `@PYGMENTS_DARK_CSS@` placeholder, scoped under
  `@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark)`.

To support template substitution, `doc/docinfo.html` is renamed to
`docinfo.html.in` and produced into the build directory via
`configure_file`; all HTML targets now depend on the generated docinfo
and the `docinfodir` attribute points to the binary dir.

Code blocks also gain a subtle 3D bevel:

- `pre` borders use theme-specific bevel colors (`--pre-bevel-light` on
  top/left, `--pre-bevel-dark` on bottom/right) for a raised look in both
  themes.
- A shared `--pre-bevel-bg` surface color is applied to literalblock,
  listingblock and `pre.pygments`, so all code blocks sit on the same
  background regardless of the pygments style.
- `pre { line-height: 1.25 }` is forced to keep line spacing consistent
  between light (Asciidoctor base `1.45`) and dark (pygments `125%`).

`python3-pygments` is added to the documented build dependencies (the
`pygmentize` binary it provides is required at configure time).
