[PATCH v3 2/4] Support 24-bit terminal colors.

["Rami Ylimäki" <rami.ylimaki@vincit.fi>]

From: Rami Ylimäki <rjy@iki.fi>

Assume that number of terminal colors has been set to 16777216 if
terminal supports direct color mode. Detection of 24-bit color support
is added in next commit.

* lisp/term/tty-colors.el (tty-color-define): Convert color palette
index to pixel value on 16.7M color terminals.
(tty-color-24bit): Add new function to convert color palette index to
pixel value on 16.7M color terminals.
(tty-color-desc): Don't approximate colors on 16.7M color terminals.
* lisp/term/xterm.el (xterm-register-default-colors): Define all named
TTY colors on 16.7M color terminals.
