The default HTML template for nimdoc currently initializes the dark mode switch and pragma dots when the onload event is fired. But since the onload event does not fire until all external resources (images, stylesheets, fonts, etc.) have been loaded, the light theme is shown for a brief moment before the document is fully loaded, and it switches to the dark theme. This is quite jarring, especially on slower internet connections. So let's instead initialize these things on the DOMContentLoaded event, which is fired right after the document has been parsed and the initial DOM structure is ready. This means that we now display the dark mode immediately, without having to wait for external resources to load first.
For reference, see:

I have updated the snapshot tests in `nimdoc/`, and done some manual testing of both the theme switch and the pragma dots, to confirm that this does not break anything. Please let me know if I've missed anything.
* group procs of the same name in TOC
* correctly show `sink` parameters in TOC
* no need to reinvent the wheel - `mgetorPut` exists
* better setting of text color [ci skip]
* fix CSS for better alignment
* update doc CI filter to include the files mostly likely to require doc rebuild
* remove code duplication in ./config/nimdoc.cfg; show link to compiler docs, various fixes
* walkDirRecFilter, factor nativeToUnixPath workaround
* glob for getRst2html
* docslocal: 40s to build all docs
* revert code dedup in github actions which did not work alas...
* fixups
* Implement some custom formatting for input fields in the documentation
Aside of resulting in more consistent appearance across browsers,
this also fixes input form rendering when using Firefox with a
dark system theme on Linux.
* change the expected html in the tests
* exports are the least important field in the docs:
they are put in the last place (at the bottom)
* indent text after proc/type declaration for an easier navigation
(noticeable difference between declarations and examples)
* quickfix invalid style in `asynchttpserver`
Use $itemSymOrIDEnc instead of $itemSymOrID in the id and href attr in
a tags.

Thanks to @LemonBoy for helping with this commit.

Update the tests too -- "nim c -r nimdoc/tester" passes.
Don't assume, that the default background-color is white.
My default background-color is dark, which makes the documentation hardly readable: https://i.imgur.com/xN0UjWz.png
The reason is the transparency of the existing color (rgba(252, 248, 244, 0.45);)
Fixed by removing the transparency.
Switch to Lato font for better readability
Make text darker
Make spacing between paragraph and pre block consistent
Fix search input box to prevent overlapping with text
