feat: Add color column with filter to spool list

Add optional color column to spool list showing filament color swatches
with multi-select filtering capability.

Backend:
- GET /api/v1/color endpoint to list distinct filament colors
- filament.color_hex query param on spool list for filtering

Frontend:
- ColorFilterColumn component renders color swatches
- useSpoolmanColors() hook fetches available colors
- Filter dropdown shows swatches with hex codes
- Column hidden by default (enable via column selector)

+### Color Column in Spool List
+
+Added optional color column to the spool list with filtering capability.
+
+**Backend:**
+- `spoolman/database/filament.py` - `find_colors()` function to get distinct color hex codes
+- `spoolman/api/v1/other.py` - `GET /api/v1/color` endpoint to list all colors
+- `spoolman/api/v1/spool.py` - Added `filament.color_hex` query parameter for filtering
+- `spoolman/database/spool.py` - Filter implementation (supports comma-separated values)

+**Frontend:**
+- `client/src/components/column.tsx` - `ColorFilterColumn` component renders color swatches
+- `client/src/components/otherModels.tsx` - `useSpoolmanColors()` hook to fetch colors
+- `client/src/pages/spools/list.tsx` - Added color column (hidden by default)
+- `client/public/locales/en/common.json` - Added "Color" translation key
+
+**Features:**
+- Color displayed as small swatch with hex tooltip
+- Filter dropdown shows swatches with hex codes
+- Multi-select filtering (can filter by multiple colors)
