Bug Description

When the dconf parameter color-scheme in /org/gnome/shell/ubuntu/ is modified, the GNOME Shell theme remains in the default state, i.e. it switches between light and dark together with the ‘Dark Style’ toggle. It is impossible to set the Shell theme to be unconditionally dark or light.

To reproduce:
--------------------
1. Run command
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.ubuntu color-scheme 'prefer-dark'
or modify the parameter color-scheme in /org/gnome/shell/ubuntu/ to be equal 'prefer-dark' via the Dconf Editor GUI.
2. Make sure that the ‘Dark Style’ toggle is deactivated in the quick settings.

What should happen:
--------------------
The Shell dialogs like the quick settings menu and the calendar-and-notifications menu should be rendered in dark style.

What happens instead:
--------------------
The Shell dialogs are still light.
