New section on spacing, other additions

- Mention checking privacy policies for 3p content
- Elaborate on more mainstream examples of color overrides
- Link to CSS WG docs instead of MDN for prefers-contrast since they're
  more detailed.
- Specify that I'm just removing margins in <figure> elements for
  quotations.

The Web version of this page only uses non-default colors when a user agent requests a dark color scheme (using the "prefers-color-scheme" CSS media query; see the next subsection) and for lightening borders. Any image with a solid background may match the page background; to ensure that their dimensions are clear, I surrounded them with borders. I also set a custom color for the borders and ensure that the image backgrounds don't match the border colors. I included borders further down to break up next/prev post navigation as well as separate footers, since these elements lack heading-based delineation.

Browser default stylesheets typically give <figure> elements extra margins on the left and right. <blockquote> elements have a large indent. Combining these two properties gives the final quotation an excessive visual indent, wasting precious vertical screen space. When quoted text contains list elements (<ol>, <dl>, <ul>), the indentation alone may fill most of a narrow viewport!
I chose to remove the margins in <figure> elements. If you're reading the Web version of this page with its own stylesheet enabled, in a CSS 3 compliant browser, you might notice that the blockquotes on it have a minimal indent and a thick gray border on the left rather than a full indent. These two adjustments allow blockquotes containing bulleted lists to fit on most narrow viewports, even when wrapped by a <figure> element. Browsers that do not support CSS 3 properties such as "padding-inline-start" will render quoted text using default stylesheets (probably with an indent), which are perfectly usable if a bit inconvenient.

Another example: outside the Web, I prefer indenting code with tabs instead of spaces. Tab widths are user-configurable, while spaces aren't. HTML pre-formatted code blocks, however, are best indented with two spaces. Default browser stylesheets typically represent tabs with an excessive indent, which can be annoying on narrow viewports.
### When indentation helps
Excessive indentation can make reading difficult for narrow viewports, but preserving some indentation is still useful.
For now, I've decided to keep the indents on list elements (<ol>, <dl>, <ul>) since I often fill them with links. See see this article's table of contents on its Web mirror for an example:

This indentation provides important negative space. Readers with hand tremors depend on this space to scroll without accidentally selecting an interactive element:

Designers often use figures to “break up” their content, and provide negative space.
