Testcase

To reproduce:
- Enable "Dark Style" in GNOME.
- Open Epiphany.
- Open something that has `color-scheme: light dark`.

Expected behavior:
- It renders the page with white text on a dark background.

Actual behavior:
- It show white text on a white background.

Additional context:
- I think this is similar to https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202194 but I'm still seeing this in Epiphany Technology Preview 45.0-51-gbeb7b7222+
- The problem goes away after reloading the page.

I wonder when was the last good version. :(

I think severity here is quite high, since it can make pages that rely on color-scheme without custom styling appear entirely blank.

Reproduced today on Web 46 (WebKitGTK 2.44.1) and Epiphany Technology Preview 46.0-89-g1aca13c01+ (WebKitGTK 2.45.2).
