Details:
plrcolormode in 2.4 has modes where colouring is based on player number and on
team number.
For scenarios / rulesets like Alien World where a small number of nations are
defined, it would make sense to allow a given nation to always have its
characteristic colour (so, say, "J&W Corporation" is always blue).
This would require:
* New value for plrcolormode, NATION_ORDER.
* Nation specs to be able to optionally specify a colour.
** If one isn't specified in the ruleset file (as will be the case for our
"standard" nations), then this nation will use a randomly selected colour from
the game set (similar to PLR_SET).
* Setting plrcolormode=NATION_ORDER should warn if *no* nations in this
ruleset have colours defined, as completely random colours is probably not
what the user expected.
