break out colorbrewer and make its own project

[andreasprlic]

Looks like it might be useful to take out colorbrewer and make it a standalone project. Should be easy, since it is already its own submodule.

There might some be similarity/overlap with this library I wrote

http://www.dishevelled.org/color-scheme/

I'm hoping to merge this into a Cytoscape 3 app in the near future. There might also be utility in bringing together code/concepts from prefuse (the predecessor to flare which came before protovis which morphed into D3.js)

http://prefuse.org/

and toxi.color

http://toxiclibs.org/about/

and NodeBox colors

http://nodebox.net/code/index.php/Colors

In any case, this is an interest of mine. :)

Interesting, yea looks like there is definitely some overlap...

Step one: code has been moved here:
https://github.com/rcsb/colorbrewer

next steps will be figuring out how to host this on Maven central and then delete the original rcsb viewers module.
