I did a little more checking to see if this was needed elsewhere and I think
this is the wrong patch to apply.  It appears that
colorConverter.to_rgba_array() might not be correctly handling the case of
'none'.  If one passes in a list of colors with some of them being 'none',
everything works nicely.  However, if one passes in just 'none', then it
returns an empty array.  Note that passing in ['none'] to .to_rgba_array()
produces a length 1 array.

>>> mcolor.colorConvertor.to_rgba_array('none')
array([], shape=(0, 4), dtype=float64)

>>> mcolor.colorConvertor.to_rgba_array(['none'])
array([[ 0.,  0.,  0.,  0.]])

>>> mcolor.colorConvertor.to_rgba_array('r')
array([[ 1.,  0.,  0.,  1.]])

Should this be regarded as a bug?
