 Currently, there is no way (short of direct option queries) to get theme
 mods of an inactive theme.  This can be problematic when a user wants to
 see what changes they had configured on a parent theme, when on a child
 theme, or when trying to see the other theme mods they had configured
 elsewhere.

 This change moves the bulk of the theme mod functions to be methods on the
 `WP_Theme` class -- so if you `wp_get_theme()` any theme -- active or
 inactive -- you can view and change its mods.

 The attached changeset also converts the existing legacy methods to use
 the new versions on the current theme.
