Convert ANSI terminal color palettes (16 colors per palette, 12 palettes) to .xccolortheme files for Xcode.
This generator reads ANSI terminal palettes (16 colors each, 12 palettes) defined in
colors.md and produces Xcode
.xccolortheme files. Each palette maps to 24 Xcode syntax
tokens (keywords, strings, comments, types, etc.) so that the editor's
syntax highlighting matches the terminal color scheme.
Canonical themes live in themes/.
When the source palette changes, run the generator to rebuild them into
labs/dist/.
