feat: add dark/light mode toggle with localStorage persistence

- Enable Tailwind "class" dark mode strategy
- Use CSS custom properties for theme colors (bg, text, border)
- Add ThemeProvider context with toggle and localStorage persistence
- Add Sun/Moon toggle button in the header navigation
- Inline script in index.html prevents FOUC on page load
- All pages (Layout, Login, Register, ProtectedRoute) support both modes
- Default theme follows system preference (prefers-color-scheme)

Closes leeworks-agents/SPARC#33
