LCH Color Function

[entropylost]

What problem does this solve or what need does it fill?

Colors are difficult to read. For example, it's hard to tell that Color::rgb(0.8, 0.3, 0.7) is pink.

Describe the solution would you like?

Add a LCH color function as well as the HEX colors. The LCH color space allows for colors that are somewhat related to how people actually see it.

Describe the alternative(s) you've considered?

N/A

Additional context

This blog post (https://lea.verou.me/2020/04/lch-colors-in-css-what-why-and-how/) provides a good explanation of what the LCH color space is.

Hello!
There is actually a way to make colors more readable. Just use Color::hex function like this:

let rgb_color = Color::hex("ff0000");
let rgba_color = Color::hex("ffff0001");
println!("{:?}", rgb_color); //Ok(Color { red: 1.0, green: 0.0, blue: 0.0, alpha: 1.0 })
println!("{:?}", rgba_color); //Ok(Color { red: 1.0, green: 1.0, blue: 0.0, alpha: 0.003921569 })

However, I do agree that another color space would be a nice addition. I'll try to take further steps in order to contribute.
Cheers!

I'd suggest #1146 for solving this issue.
