I'm not sure I understand why 'light' necessarily means the old
behavior: we didn't set any theme before this change, we just used the
Windows default. So maybe there should be 4 values:
nil: never follow the system theme (use Windows default)
t: always follow the system theme
light: force light theme (currently the same as nil)
dark: force dark theme.

early-init is a file, called literally "early-init.el". If you have
such a file in your ~/.emacs.d/ directory, Emacs will load it early on
during the startup.

The recommendation is to move to early-init.el only stuff that cannot
work in the normal init file. That's because early-init is processed
when some of the infrastructure is not yet set up, so things could
fail there that will work correctly in the init file.
