Tango color palette support (diff against 4.3.0, but also works for 4.2.3)

Currently, gnuplot doesn't natively support the Tango color palette. Because of that, using these colors in a plot isn't very practical as one must specify the hexadecimal value such as:

set style line 1 lt rgb "#888a85"
set style line 2 lt rgb "#4e9a06"

Expanding the gnuplot color namespace to include the Tango color palette makes using these colors a lot easier as the .plt stays readable, e.g.:

set style line 1 lt rgb "tango-aluminium-4"
set style line 2 lt rgb "tango-chameleon-3"

Hello, I just ask gnuplot upstream whether the patch you have set is acceptable for them (the question is on their mailing list), but they agreed thei will not add it - so  this patch will not be in fedora gnuplot too.
Thanks for your help.
