[devrel-program] Add Dark/Light Mode Support with Toggle (DevRel Website)

[amaan-bhati]

(preferably after #3065 is resolved)
The DevRel Program website (devrel.keploy.io) currently does not support a dark/light mode, which is now a standard expectation for accessibility and modern web experiences. Implementing a theme toggle will improve usability, especially for users who prefer dark interfaces, and align the site with Keploy’s branding consistency.

Expectations & Considerations:

• Implement dark/light mode using Tailwind CSS dark variants (dark: utilities).
• Add a theme toggle button (preferably in the Navbar for easy access).
• Ensure the theme persists across sessions (e.g., localStorage or next-themes).
• Integrate UI libraries (shadcn/ui, Radix UI, Magic UI, etc.) for a clean and accessible toggle component.
• Ensure both modes follow Keploy’s design language while maintaining contrast ratios for readability.
• Apply theme compatibility across all pages and sections (home, program details, components like modals/footers).
• Respect user’s system preference (prefers-color-scheme).

Acceptance Criteria:

• Toggle button is accessible and works across all devices.
• Dark and light modes apply consistently across all pages and components.
• Theme preference persists after page reloads and navigation.
• Navbar, footer, modals, and other UI components adapt correctly in both themes.

Links:

• DevRel Program Website: https://devrel.keploy.io/
• Tailwind Dark Mode Docs: https://tailwindcss.com/docs/dark-mode
• Example UI Component: https://ui.shadcn.com/docs/components/switch

Notes:

• Ensure that the global layout (layout.tsx) handles theme switching cleanly.
• Reusable components (buttons, cards, headings) should support both light and dark variants.
• Toggle should feel consistent with the Keploy main website experience.
