Update `s.matlab.environment.theme = true;` to a version where it takes a string. Assume the factory default in the new version is 'auto'.

Diff MATLAB settings between two releases and automatically update any .m file that configures MATLAB settings (via .PersonalValue or .TemporaryValue assignments) so that setting paths point to the correct locations in the target release. Works with startup scripts, team preference files, test setup scripts, deployment configs, or any code that programmatically sets MATLAB settings.
.m scripts set PersonalValue or TemporaryValue on settings whose paths changed between releases.m file does not set any MATLAB settings (s.PersonalValue / s.TemporaryValue assignments)<script-path> — (required) Path to any .m file that sets PersonalValue/TemporaryValue on MATLAB settings[from:R20XXy] or [from:/path/to/MATLAB/R20XXy] — (optional) Source release the script was written for. Accepts either a release name (e.g., R2025b) which is resolved to the platform default install location, or a full path to a MATLAB installation root. If omitted, auto-detected from script content.[to:R20XXy] or [to:/path/to/MATLAB/R20XXy] — (optional) Target release to migrate to. Accepts either a release name or a full path to a MATLAB installation root. If omitted, defaults to the latest installed MATLAB release on this machine.Examples:
/matlab-settings-migrate ~/startup.m
/matlab-settings-migrate ~/startup.m from:R2025b to:R2026a
/matlab-settings-migrate ~/startup.m to:R2025a
/matlab-settings-migrate ./test/setup_prefs.m from:/opt/matlab/R2025b to:/opt/matlab/R2026a
/matlab-settings-migrate ~/team_settings.m from:/network/apps/MATLAB/R2024b to:R2026a
Default behavior (no from/to): Detect the source release from the script, then migrate to the newest installed MATLAB release. If you want to migrate to an older release (downgrade), specify to: explicitly.
Parse the arguments string to extract:
from: value — either a release name (R20XXy) or a full path (/path/to/MATLAB/R20XXy)to: value — either a release name (R20XXy) or a full path (/path/to/MATLAB/R20XXy)test cases passed with the skill
