Color conversion scripts

The following functions convert between LSL color in Red Green Blue (RGB) format and color in Hue Saturation Value (HSV) format. The functions are based on "c" algorithms from c color conversion but required some debugging and extensive re-working to fit them in to LSL. For a discussion of HSV color format please see the wikipedia entry at HSV Color

Amazing what a little bit of readability does. If I ever submit anything else that poorly formatted again, someone please smack me upside the head and tell me to come fix it, please.
