TextManipulator: make text use current fg color only #636

previous functionality was flexible but non-intuitive

Fixes #197 - depending on your point of view. Removes the ability to multi-color text but IMO not a bad thing. Fixes #229

I think it's OK to make the text tool more simple but intuitive, even if we lose a (hidden) feature. Maybe one day it'll become really powerful, with easy formatting and some layouting end stuff, possibly in a special text-layer that keeps the text editable etc. Not super urgend though, I think.

Yeah, I expect Text needs a redo in the longer term but I am thinking about painting/editing tools and functionalities before worrying about that. I don't expect to work on Text tools any time soon.
