Default theme isn't picked up correctly from config.json

[ara4n]

Repro steps:

• Set default theme to 'status' in config.json
• Load login page
• See a weird hybrid 'light' theme CSS mixed with the HTML from the status theme (implying that LoginPage.js is seeing the theme correctly as 'status').

This was caused by the index.js not checking the config.json value at all (in fact, the config wasn't even loaded fully at the time of the check), but MatrixChat found a different value for the theme. This meant that the basic login components got light, but the rest of the UI got status.

In other words, #5630 fixes this by loading the config fully ahead of asking for the theme.

@ara4n this should be fixed now

closing because @turt2live says it's fixed ;)

[ara4n]

i'm not entirely sure that it is fixed tbh - @lampholder was saying that we now pick themes at random at startup...

[turt2live]

That sounds bad... Is there any more information I can get?

[uhoreg]

well, that'll teach me to trust @turt2live when he says he's fixed something 😛

I'm trying to use this to set the dark theme as the default. This does not work.

@skylord123 what are you seeing instead?
