WIP: cleanup before squash

Fix Book code styling in dark mode by replacing hard-coded colors with variables

Book pages used hard-coded colors for inline and block code (e.g. `#eee`, `#333`)
in `book2.scss`, which prevented dark-mode styles from taking effect. As a result,
code blocks in the Git Book did not adapt correctly when switching themes.

This change replaces those hard-coded values with CSS variables
(`--book-code-bg`, `--book-code-color`, `--book-code-border`), allowing dark mode
to override Book code styling in the same way as other sections (e.g. man-pages).

Not all `code.<language>` color rules are adjusted here, as they relate to syntax
highlighting rather than theme contrast and require a separate, more holistic
approach.

An alternative approach—overriding Book code styles directly in `dark-mode.scss`
using more specific selectors—was considered but rejected, as it would further
increase selector complexity instead of fixing the root cause.

Fixes #2120
