docs: improve readability for people with poorer eyesight
My eyesight is not in good shape, which means that I have difficulty reading the online Linux documentation. Specifically, body text is oddly small compared to list items and the contrast of various text elements is too low for me to be able to see easily. Therefore, alter the HTML theme overrides to make the text larger and increase the contrast for better visibility, and trust the typeface choices of the reader's browser. For the PDF output, increase the text size, use a sans-serif typeface for sans-serif text, and use a serif typeface for "roman" serif text. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
