named colors

[fbergmann]

SED-ML L1V4 will store color information as hexadecimals. As Herbert rightly pointed out, some people might prefer named colors instead.

Lists of named colors to be used can be found:

• https://matplotlib.org/3.1.0/gallery/color/named_colors.html
• https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.windows.media.colors?view=netframework-4.8

As becomes apparent, while names in the different lists are quite similar, casing isn't. So lookup will be case insensitive. If reverse lookup is implemented, I would probably returned the pascal cased version (as it will be easier for others to convert it to lower case).

\o/ ... fixed the original content to be sure it is 'named colors' we are talking about .. not 'color names' ... none of that 'ou' stuff here ... we are civilized .. no colour shall be mentioned or supported :D

I think this issue can be closed. We decided on not supporting this on the library level.
