Yes.  But it would be nicer if the lcms.c functions accepted colors in
any form supported by Emacs: a color name, a string RGB spec, or a
list of RGB values.  I think.

color-srgb-to-xyz accepts 3 arguments, not one.  Also, its doc string
says the components are floats between 0 and 1.  So this should be
amended accordingly.
