This property is defined in http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-ui/#caret-color.
We also add a -gtk-secondary-caret-color property, since GTK+ has
supported differently colored split cursors in the past. Unlike
CSS, we don't support the weakly defined auto keyword, and just
use currentColor as the initial value.
This borrows heavily from the CSS4 fonts draft's font-palette, currently
found at https://drafts.csswg.org/css-fonts-4/#font-palette-control
The palette is mainly meant to trigger invalidations when colors used for
symbolic icons change, to potentially allow extending supported colors
in symbolic icons and to recolor all colors of a symbolic icon, not just
the main one.
The syntax for the property goes like this:
Name: -gtk-icon-palette
Value: default | name <color> [ , name <color> ]*
Initial: default
Applies to: all elements with icons
Inherited: yes
Animatable: yes, each color animated separately
The property defines a list of named colors to be used when looking up
icons. If a name is not defined, the value of the current "color"
property is used. Which names are relevant depends on the icons in use.
Currently symbolic icons make use of the names "success", "warning" and
"error".
"default" is the current behavior of the GTK when coloring symbolic
icons and is equal to the string
success @success_color, warning @warning_color, error @error_color
Animation is crudely implemented by animating colors that are in both
palettes that are animated and otherwise keeping the color from the
palette that defined it. Note that this can cause a sharp cut at the
beginning or end of the animation when the color goes away and will
therefore be replaced with the color property.

We now pass NULL when the current color should be the default value of
the "color" property and we haven't looked up any value yet. This way we
don't need to look it up all the time and more importantly we can
resolve the default color, which is required because it's a
GtkCssColorValue and not a GtkCssRgbaValue.
Fixes assertions triggering at Polari startup.
We need to be able to compute different GtkCssImage values
depending on the scale, and we need this at compute time so that
we don't need to read any images other than the scale in used (to
e.g. calculate the image size). GtkStyleProviderPrivate is shared
for all style contexts, so its not right.
The following CSS would infloop:
@define-color self @self
as it would infinitely lookup the color named "self" and try to resolve
it. This patch adds detection of such cycles to the resolve function by
keeping a list of currently resolving colors in the cycle_list variable.
If a named color references a nonexistant named color, we didn't catch
that error and ended up crashing on a NULL-dereference.
This crashed Boxes, because its CSS referenced values from the theme
that didn't exist in any theme.
Make _gtk_style_provider_private_get_color() return a GtkCssValue (a
GtkCssColorValue to be exact) instead of GtkSymbolicColor.
With this, the symbolic color usage inside GTK is minimized.
