Artifact used: com.android.support:customtabs, com.android.support:design, com.android.support:gridlayout-v7, com.android.support:support-v4
Version used: 27.1.1
Theme used: Theme.AppCompat.DayNight.NoActionBar
Devices/Android versions reproduced on: OnePlus 5, LineageOS 15.1/Android 8.1 (also seen reports on other devices)

- Relevant code to trigger the issue.

AppCompatDelegate.setDefaultNightMode(AppCompatDelegate.MODE_NIGHT_FOLLOW_SYSTEM) followed by recreate() doesn't recreate the activity with correct day/night mode (it's still using the previous settings).
