* gradient, colours: use 24-bit colour depth internally on Wayland
our Colour type assumes this anyway; lower colour depth should be handled by display backends
* core: restore gradient color computation
this was mistakenly disabled when moving to a unified Colour representation
* core, gradient: use Colour type
* tests: gradient: always test hsv/hcl
colour computations no longer depend on the display backends we compile with, so these can be tested unconditionally now
* gradients, specials: use Color type
this makes specials now accept color names as well as hex codes, and removes all notions of color depth from gradient calculations

apparently, this was actually a feature as someone made it deliberately act that way. However, I
agree with the bug reporter that it is strange so I remove it.
This fix reverts reverts a part of commit 08122354a9b86722e7a7b218f8deeae80235dbb1
this is necessary because that commit blocks the calling of free_scroll
This patch already implements complete auto-scaling for bars and gauges,
therefore introducing a flags field in order to signal whether
auto-scaling is enabled (and the scale field contains just the max value
seen so far).
Also add a little hack to $scroll to omit the need to call new_fg() from
inside print_scroll(). Instead of inserting a new special after printing
the scrolled text, insert a new object after the scroll object when
parsing text objects to handle the color reset.
The decision about whether to print ASCII or X11 bar is done from within
specials.c, so all those #ifdef + if () blocks can be dropped. This also
implicitly enables the ASCII bar for some bar printing objects which where
forgotten before.
This is more or less a temporary fix to restore the former behaviour. In
the long term objects will define a max value, which will be of use for
all kinds of meters.
Added support for X alignment across multi-lined objects (i.e., using
$alignr with $exec). This may be a bit buggy. Disabled OpenMP code
until GCC's implementation stabilizes (it's causing too many problems).
A couple Lua API changes.
