Bug#930569: debian-installer: Dark theme installer selects MATE by default

[Yevgen <altsyde@gmail.com>]

I understand that you're trying to care about users.

But there's at least 2 arguments againts this decision:

1) Assumption that dark themes were meant mostly for low vision is realy subjective.

Some people use them at night, some just prefer them...

2) It makes Debian installer inconsistent

This is done in rootskel, see version 1.127.

It was done on purpose, to automatically install compiz support. The
idea is that we here assume that choosing the dark theme means low
vision, and thus the desire to have good zooming support.
