[geomoose-psc] Modernizing GeoMoose UX

[Dan Little]

Hey folks,

I did some work to push a human interface guideline compliant version of
GeoMoose. This, more or less, heavily tweaks the default theme and cleans
up how the LESS is structured to be easier to stylize and handle light/dark
modes.

My initial version was based on the GNOME & COSMIC desktops. It's what I
use, personally, but also I have a preference for it these days. That work
can be seen here:

Jim has some different thoughts (and defaults), so I did a fork of the
GNOME-inspired version and used the KDE HIG for a run. Those results are
here:

- https://github.com/geomoose/gm3/pull/1045

A few questions for the larger group:
1. Do folks like one or either of these?
2. Is adopting a new default style worth the potential disruption?

Please don't try to nit-pick some of the smaller details. This is a
quick-pass starting point that would take some real user feedback and
workflow clean up to be totally plausible. We can make some decisions
ourselves as well to deviate from some of the HIGs if we decided to adopt
one.

I have a dream where our standard theme is a bit more modern and where we
tell users "Set this accent color variable(s)" and we do smart things with
making the theme fit the user's branding better.

Cheers!
