image/color/palette: move Plan9Palette and WebSafePalette out of the

image/color package into their own package. They require some non-
trivial init-time code (interface conversions, currently 40KiB of text)
that would otherwise burden any Go program that imported image/color.

-// Plan9Palette is a 256-color palette that partitions the 24-bit RGB space
-// into 4×4×4 subdivision, with 4 shades in each subcube. Compared to the
-// WebSafePalette, the idea is to reduce the color resolution by dicing the
-// color cube into fewer cells, and to use the extra space to increase the
-// intensity resolution. This results in 16 gray shades (4 gray subcubes with
-// 4 samples in each), 13 shades of each primary and secondary color (3
-// subcubes with 4 samples plus black) and a reasonable selection of colors
-// covering the rest of the color cube. The advantage is better representation
-// of continuous tones.
-//
-// This palette was used in the Plan 9 Operating System, described at
-// http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/6/color
