    Add support in User for theme preference
    
    Part of bug #793308
    
    If a user has the 'theme' property set in their account preferences,
    this is used instead of the site or institution's theme.
    
    The LiveUser::reset_institutions() function, which recalculates the
    institution theme, is now called in place of LiveUser::update_theme()
    whenever a user's institutions have changed.  reset_institutions() now
    calls update_theme() if the user is a LiveUser.

Title:
  When a member of multiple institutions, decide which theme to use

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When institutions have a custom theme in Mahara, it is applied.
  However, what happens when you are a member of two or even more
  institutions? Which theme is chosen then?

  It would be good for a user to be able to choose her default theme and
  not let Lady Fortuna ;-) decide that for her. E.g. if a teacher is a
  member of her school institution but at the same time also of an
  organizational community that both have custom themes, she may only
  want to see her school theme except when she is in a training session
  and during a presentation of her work in the community. At the moment,
  the organizational community's theme may always be the one that is
  visible which can be disadvantageous when she wants to demo her
  portfolio during school activities when everybody else has the school
  theme displayed.
