This is a slightly cleaned-up version of the patch I initially posted for
commentary on emacs-devel.
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2021-03/msg00482.html>

The patch makes two closely related changes: when a new frame is
created, the ns-appearance parameter (which was already in Emacs) is
bound to 'light or 'dark depending on the system theme. (Previously,
it could be set explicitly and Emacs would respect that change on a
per-frame basis, but if it wasn't explicitly set it was unbound.)
Secondly, it registers an event handler for changes to the system-wide
theme, and when the system theme changes, it changes the ns-appearance
parameter of all frames to match the new system theme, and runs a new
hook, ns-dark-mode-changed-hook so that users can e.g. set a new Emacs
theme to match the new system theme or whatever.

The patch is against Emacs HEAD as of time of writing. (3cbf92323c)

As mentioned on emacs-devel, this is my first Emacs patch and my first
time programming Objective-C in a long while, so I’d definitely
appreciate feedback!

Subject: [PATCH] Auto-detect ns-appearance of frames and call a hook when it
 changes.

* src/nsfns.m (Fx_create_frame): Automatically set the ns-appearance
paramter of a frame from the current system appearance on Mac OS.
* src/nsterm.m: Register for system dark/light mode change events on
Mac OS, and update the ns-appearance parameter of frames when the
system theme changes, calling a new ns-dark-mode-changed-hook when
done.
