Use Darcula aware JBColor

Reports usages of java.awt.Color.

These are not aware of "dark" themes (e.g., bundled "Darcula") and might result in bad looking UI.

Quick-fix replaces usages with JBColor, which defines "dark" color variant.

Examples:

// bad:
Color darkGreen = new Color(12, 58, 27);
Color blue = Color.BLUE;

// good:
Color darkGreen = new JBColor(12, 58, 27);
Color blue = JBColor.BLUE;
Color green = new JBColor(new Color(12, 58, 27), new Color(27, 112, 39));
