Color Changes

The old code behind peniko::Color has been removed and color functionality is now provided by the [color] crate.

This leads to a number of breaking changes:

• peniko::Color is now a type alias for AlphaColor<Srgb> from the color crate.
• AlphaColor does not, at this time, impl Default, PartialOrd, or Hash.
• ColorStop no longer impls Default or PartialOrd.
• Brush, BrushRef, and ColorStop can be constructed from a variety of color types, although, for now, Brush and BrushRef convert this internally into an unclipped AlphaColor<Srgb>.
• ColorStops is now a newtype wrapper, rather than a type alias for SmallVec.
  This allows it to be used with CacheKey from Color.
• The color crate is re-exported as peniko::color, so access to functionality from there is easy.
• The various pre-defined color constants like peniko::Color::YELLOW are no longer available.
  Instead, use the CSS palette provided within color: peniko::color::palette::css::YELLOW.
• Similarly, parsing a color string is now provided by the color crate.

This is the first step towards providing better support for richer color functionality throughout the Linebender stack.
