please enable %sendercolor% in header.html

[mathuaerknedam]

I'd like to be able to use %sendercolor% in header.html. I'll try to make a patch.

I'm failing at the patch. I'd appreciate it if someone else could make this work or point me in the right direction.

(In  a4f812b97eff) Add %senderColor% to the header keywords. Fixes #12666.

I totally should have anticipated this, but a simple %senderColor% won't quite work, at least not the way I"ve planned to use it in SO3. Specifically, %senderColor% resolves only for the incoming user. I also need the outgoing sendercolor. Based on precedent set by the icon path keywords, I'd suggest that the header use %incomingColor% and %outgoingColor%.

Sorry to have not noticed this in advance, I hope this wasn't a big waste of time.

Reopening so that it's more clear (shows in reports) that the fix isn't actually useful for the intended purpose (because of a bad request...).

(In  ad119ec778fc) Add %incomingColor% and %outgoingColor%, remove %senderColor% in headers. Fixes #12666.

This also should speed up significantly message display for styles that don't specify a custom set of colors, since we won't be querying the file for every message any longer.
