Documentation Changes: Color and Mixing

[Emmet O'Neill]

Hi again. I submitted a change to the Color Picker Tool reference manual
page, as per your suggestion. I also took that chance to update the Color
Picker's Tool Option docker screenshot to reflect what it currently looks
like.

I'm still interested in adding another paragraph to the Mixing Colors
tutorial focused on color picker blending. Is there some convenient way to
show you a preview of what I want to add? For example, maybe I could
briefly add it to the bottom of the "discussion tab" where you or someone
else can give it a quick glance before I submit it? I don't know if there
is some other kind of system in place for submitting documentation change
proposals.

Thanks,
-Emmet
